It is raining, I guess at your place too.Come for a drive and I give you root cuttings.

I will be visiting the nursery very soon to see what's on offer. I agree that pairing the lovely mauve with a stark white would look fantastic. I have just the spot for some Cat's Whiskers under my Tabernaemontana with its brilliant white flowers.BernieHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435004798656616711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466932086604675022.post-83243731932579760792015-04-15T13:13:04.437+10:002015-04-15T13:13:04.437+10:00Bernie, let me know if you do not find some, I wil...Bernie, let me know if you do not find some, I will send you some root divisions. Sharing! I love mine, it is so easy to grow and so rewarding. I think it would also look nice with some white flowers as a contrast. I love it with the yellow Tecoma. Have you got that one?Lavender and Vanilla Friends of the Gardenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05403418150146893599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7466932086604675022.post-34334586253810479652015-04-15T09:47:31.773+10:002015-04-15T09:47:31.773+10:00This is a plant I've always wanted to grow, bu...This is a plant I've always wanted to grow, but never have. Your post has reminded me why it's been on my wish list for so long. I really must find some. I just adore the light mauve colour.BernieHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435004798656616711noreply@blogger.com
