RE: briefcase- cuttings-roses


Wow- I didn't know all of this about the streptocarpus.  This is a plant I
got from the CalHort sale last spring.  Actually my husband picked it out
because he thought it had interesting leaves (we didn't even know it bloomed
at the time!). When you say cuttings will root easily- are you referring to
leaf cuttings? I'd like to make more of these.  Mine bloomed like crazy last
year in the wonderful deep blue-purple color.  I need to get back online and
order a couple more climbing roses.  One I was looking for doesn't seem
available (Alba Sauveolens)- I have a kind of shady spot I was hoping to get
a climber (with thorns) for near my bird feeders.  So, off to figure out a
replacement.

Thanks for the info-

Theresa,
The anemone is vibrant!
I took a look at your Sombreuil Rose.  Just ordered 2 of them for the
Moonlight Garden at CES.  Also noticed your streptocarpus.  Cuttings of it
will root extremely easily.  Not hardy here, so a woman who was going to
throw her hanging basket out gave it to me.  I kept it over winter and
rejuvenated it.  Looked great again come spring - and so did the other 7
hanging baskets I made from its cuttings.
