My Plant BabIes are Blossoming

These blossoms in these three photos are the first blossoms from some of the plants growing around Chacala. I grew these plants from cutting I got from my neighbors here in Chacala. The plants are all less than three months, from starting as a cutting. My failure is the Mandevilla. it's growing, but no blossoms yet.














Oleander (nerium oleander)from Lupe's plant
I put the Oleander cutting in a jug of water and left in for weeks, waiting for the roots to form. When they did I planted both cuttings dirt light, loose soil, and keep them welled watered in the shade. The had blossons quickly, which surprised and pleased me.
