now i have little plant containers to wake up & visit each morning. happy cuttings of lavender cottons, rosemaries, mexican sages, wisteras, 1 lilac, lavender from here & a rose from daves house. i'm keeping them in full shade right now. in a week i will put them in the sun for a couple hours a day.

over a week ago i took cuttings from the two lavender varieties that grow here- those are already doing fine in the sunshine. same with a catnip cutting though the leaves curl if he is in the sun all day, so i don't do full sun for the catnip yet. when i drove down here i took with me one of the cuttings that i took from the curry plant which grows at the fragrance garden. the curry does fine in full sun, he has for the past week, and even has tiny new leaves that are coming out the sides of his old branches. thats quick! spring is a great time for cuttings..
