Very nice DualWieldRake! How are the Kanna cuttings doing? I'll be taking some soon and I'd be interested to know what worked best for you.

I had read to treat these cuttings somewhat like cactusses to have success
It worked on a batch i did, they all took. Another try and got mixed results

Gave the left side slightly more water, right side only barely moist. Few days later left side almost completely wilted whit soil still moist, right side all took with soil going dry before i moistured again

Clematis montana twig from last spring (first pic)

Kiwi

Acclimatizing

Ipomoea alba flowers

This Artemisia absinthium was keeping pedro spot warm, moved it underneath honeysuckle

And pedro back outside, sacred datura planted around it
Crawling rosemary didn't survive the winter (good riddance), apparently that cultivar is slightly less hardy then it's regular counterpart that i planted 2 of

If your username reflects your tendency of sniffing out flowers i could see this beeing a problem
Didn't notice anything yet tho (had about 10 sniffs), besides the dog talking in a french accent, that was kinda weird..since i don't even have a dog  Just kidding but yea i kinda missed the scent i heard people talk about.. Something very faint...gonna try again later tonight

Had some nice weather so here's an update.
Kanna. Almost a year ago, first try of cuttings in the pot with original 2 plants

Currently, after harvesting 150 grams of fresh material. First two pictures is one of the original plants and the last two is the other.


Cherry seeds went into the fridge for stratification

Kiwi, brown leaves are the result of a foliar feeding session. The green leaves are new growth so it should look good again in no time. Just needs a bit more trellis.
 (front left is Erysimum scoparium and around the stem Boerhavia diffusa)
Ice plant started blooming. This is after i rinsed off the insecticidal soap (it had some aphids sucking on the papillae) and before it turned into a living wreck.

Some seedlings, Canarina canariensis, Passiflora caerulea and Banisteriopsis caapi with some infection showing up in the leaves

Pups. 2 months later the second one broke trough

Dragon fruit (my first ever own roots pup with the apical meristem intact ) and Echinofossulocactus crispatus

Lophophora sp.

Ipomoea alba a week after i pollinated a flower. It's growing decently considering all round-up it has to endure from the neighbour, no signs of seed setting yet though.

Calycanthus floridus, Osmanthus x burkwoodii, tolguacha, sinicuichi, Jasminum officinale 'Aureum', wormwood and Lonicera tatarica. Jasminum not doing too well, might just have to get a real one that is green

Got carried away when trimming an aphid infested twig off the wormwood, completely forget i was anticipating flowers on it 

Argyreia nervosa outside and another one (moved back) indoor

2 Khat cuttings, the mother plant and it's outdoor sibling

Nice garden!
Is that a kiwifruit vine? We call them kiwifruit in New Zealand and I'm just making sure. And has it got male and female grafted onto the one vine?

Ok. It's a different species than the traditional Kiwifruit found in supermarkets. Which makes sense as your plant has smaller leaves and seems less hairy.
In orchards they usually graft male vines onto female ones as they're dioecious. Seems like you could do the same with this species, although it's mainly grown fro the foliage it seems.

I love woodrose. Its such a beautiful plant, and the leaves get huge! Yours look beautiful.  The leaf in my signature was a brand new leaf from mine, it was the only one I got to sprout and it's a beast now.

Haha thanks and i guess you are right, it's still beatiful even with all the snail holes  Yours looks really healthy compared to it. Where do you grow it? Got more pics?
