        All the salvias....leucanthemum, waverley, amistad, blue note, love n wishes, embers wishes, guanajuato, cacalifolia and more. The tuberous ones will be divided in a few weeks.
        Agastaches ....several varieties....heliotropes, sunpatiens, tender osteospermums, gauras and more :)
        Divisions of perennials like rudbeckias and cannas in November......hmmm! Then it will be winter! :love30:

              Took cuttings from my tender fushcia, Rivendell, yesterday, as I'm worried it won't survive the winter. Got home from work this evening to discover the cuttings haven't even survived the day - kitten had upended the pot and danced soil across the sitting room :noidea: Will have to try again at the weekend...

                      Not a lot as most tender ones are lifted and potted for the winter but I have taken cuttings of Coleus Saturn and Perilla magilla. Two of my Bougainvillea cuttings from Malcesine have rooted and will over winter in the conservatory, too cold for Coleus and Perilla which will stay on the kitchen window sill.

                                Jiffy, philadelphus needs to be pruned every year but correctly :)
                                It wont affect yours for a few years now but pruned every year, after flowering, it makes for a compact floriferous shrub.
                                At least you now know two things.....you wont kill it by over hard pruning and you can prune it to produce plenty of flowers:)
