While on the road yesterday, I saw the plant I was trying to identify from a visit to Crowley's that I said was similar to Sweet Almond Bush, the Chaste Tree. I come into this thread to see y'all are very familiar with this cool plant. I ran across a huge bush in Brooksville and brought home some cuttings. The blooms reminded me a little of a lilac in smell, but it has been a few years since I have smelled one, LOL. From what I've read, the Chaste Tree actually has 3 different versions, purple, purple/blue and white.

Yesterday I had more passiflora bloom on one day than any in the past.

First is Hibiscus, forget the name, 2nd is passiflora Betty Myles Young, 3rd is passiflora Lady Margaret, 4th is a cuttings I got from a local school (mexican sunflower?) and 5th was saved from a neighbors trash last fall (NOID plumeria).
