| When I seen blossoms I thought Spring Blossom as my Nectarine tree is covered in blossoms again. Guess I was wrong Gwen..  Yours is so pretty and I love blue flowers too I have blue in the garden also but not dainty little flowers like those ones.. | |

| Yes its lovely . When son was over from Darwin he was doing the irrigation and accidently knocked a couple of pieces of that shrub off, he left them lying beside the shrub meaning to collect them later and forgot. A week after he left I found the pieces of broken shrub and could.nt believe my eyes , they had alresdy put out roots, so I would defenitly say they strike easily. | |

| Yes they certainly do have beautiful plants Gwen.  Sorry what I meant was things seem to root quicker up here in the warmer climate. | |
