    Thanks for that info, Shiney, I'll bring the plant indoors and see if it will survive the Winter.

    I don't think it's a easy plant to ID, not that I'm good at remembering plant names, and there are a "few" plants in my borders who's names I have forgotten!!:dunno::hate-shocked: :heehee:

    It may be better to take basal cuttings as the plant can get quite straggly - and it's an insurance against losing it. :blue thumb:

      :ideaIPB: I've got two of them, Shiney, so I'll try to nurse one through the Winter and the other I've use for basal cuttings:snork:

      It survives outside most winters for me. But I take cuttings anyway, cos they're EASY, you have plenty to give away and they're an insurance.

        ARMANDII, it's possible yours will survive as you are quite sheltered :blue thumb: but it would be unlikely to survive at our place as we are so exposed to the cold winds in the winter.

          Well, if I try both methods then hopefully I will double my chances, Shiney.:snork:

          Take a lot of cuttings and still keep the plants and it can go exponential! :hate-shocked:
