Some flowering early, others budding up. these were from cuttings some years back and a few were "no names" so I'm full of delighted expectation!

(Now I haven't used PB for ages so here goes)

Jen, I can send cuttings of the plum. I have not tried to root them and was wondering if you had. I might try to root the Guthrie after it leafs out more. I can also send a bulb of the Eucommis. You can propagate Eucommis by carefully pulling a leaf off and planting the base of it in a small container of good potting soil. The leaf will gradually produce 2 small bulblets by the end of summer. I think Chickasaw Plums require 2 different plants to pollinate before they can fruit. The Indians had hundreds of cultivars, probably lost now. Does Cerinthe major grow easily for you? Mine keep dying. Mexican Petunia, dwarf pink is one I don't have. I'm waiting to see if Mirabilis longiflora comes back. It has smaller but very long stemmed white flowers with a fragrance similar to M.jalapa. I can swap you for a seed or two of Senna didymobotrya. I have Cassia or Senna hebecarpa, similar to C. marylandica. Have Salvia leucantha- Velvet Sage in two varieties. We may get seed of Sinocalycanthus this year. It had a few pods last year. Mike

I don't know Tricia, are there any other Victorians out there with experience? I expect they wouldn't like frosts but if you can grow other cacti and succulents I don;t see why not.
Yes these colours are great, I think a lot of the others are variations on cream, but that's nice, too.

They are just beautiful Alison, particularly the pink one I have the red one but this year the frost got it bad, I forgot to protect it, I didn't lose it though.
