Well that's fantastic to hear! It rained like crazy here all summer and Angelonia (one each of the 3 colors they had) still look great! I even moved them at the beginning of June because I didn't like how far back they were. No idea what it will think about being in a pot inside for winter, but nothing lost to try.

Hypoestes hasn't been mentioned here yet. A little more tricky to convince it to start from cuttings than a lot of other plants, but easy to keep alive once that hurdle's been jumped. I've come across many instances of them being kept as house plants for years on house plant forums.

If anyone has gotten 'spikes' for their pots, they should be either Dracaena or Cordyline, and can eventually turn into little trees if given a chance to escape winter.

What about the cute little globe basil? Anyone have that sneak in before?

The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The 2nd best time is now. (-Unknown)

Try to be more valuable than a bad example.
