I have two small rooted plants that both have a bloom on them. Lars just sent me a lot of cuttings. I let them heal a week and half. after I got them. I just planted them in hanging pots. I planted them crowded. But not touching. The pot is shallow. I will not water them. till they root. They are in a bright warm room. I live in the mountains at 3500' so it is not yet warm enough out there. I don't have a lot of bugs on other plants , so I am not worried. I just have to watch what soil I use so the bear stays out. They play in them. Not sure about deer do they like them?
I started with two plants and now have four different colors of cuttings (10 or more per color). So I will wait for those. I have never seen one bloom in real life. The blooms on the two small plants are taking forever. I have had them 4wks. They just keep getting bigger.
I have a huge deck that has an awning (80%) and a large tree that are bright area's but shaded. They will have to come in for the winter. so I might need a fork lift :-)
I will not get addicted..............................
