Rose,

Guess it's a bit of both.  I mean plants with gray leaves - most of which
come from Mediterranean climates (unlike mine) and don't like humid
conditions -- which one normally gives to a cutting to keep it from wilting
--  plants like Rosemary, Sage, Phlomis fruticosa, Helichrysum petiolatum,
Lavender, Artimisia, etc. (and if I've misspelt any of these - sorry, too
tired to look up the right spelling :-)).  And I also mean any plants
*like* those mentioned, but not necessarily with gray leaves -- some of the
salvias, for instance, have purple or variegated leaves, but behave just
like the plants with gray leaves.

Hope this makes sense and clarifies things.  If not, yell and I'll try
again :-)
