Re: mystery plant

Judy -- your mom lives in my area, and I suggest that she take her cuttings
to either Quail Botanical Gardens in Encinitas (Just off Encinitas Blvd. at
Westlake) or to Jim Duggan at Encinitas Gardens (Santa Fe Dr. at El Camino
Real).   BTW, Jim is on this list, so he might respond as well
Good luck!
