Well spring is late as are the wisteria... but they are blooming all over now.. a few of the passafloras that were blooming so incely inside didn't like the move they made outside.. a few others didn't seem to mind at all.. and are leafing and doing great... the two mandavillas are doing ok.. but not alot of growth after the move and have restarted themselves... the virgins bower that was blooming great inside has lost all of it's winterleaves and looks next to dead outside.. but it should return.. the moonflowers are up and doing nicely.. as are the four types of morning glorys.. cypress vines are up and slow... sweetpeas are slow and only 8" tall... I think they were about 7" a month ago.. I thought they would like it a bit cooler.. castor bean vine is doing fine.. clitorea just might have survived... and a few of the tiny bouganviellas got just about sunburnt to start they are now back in the window... hope they pull through.. guess that's about it for vines.. a few get the new cherry trellis and the rest have to fend for them selves on the one on top of the fence...
strange spring here.. in the roof garden.. OH.. the porcelean vine has returned and looks strong again this year... and it's neighbor the red honeysuckle gets the best looking overwintered outside here award
