Yesterday I finally potted up the cuttings I took last year from Colin's privet and the mandevilla that the local ladies club brought to my father-in-law's memorial. They thought the mandevilla was a perennial- the tag said it was- but sadly, it's not perennial here. We tried to keep the big plant going in the house this winter, but it succumbed.

So, here are the young plants, with added cat! (Natasha)
