Hi Susan and Liz,

I made the trellis myself--the wheels are nice cause I can move it around the patio, or to a different spot around the yard if need be.

Erick, I hope to have seeds by the end of the summer, but will also try to make some cuttings, since those would be easier to overwinter. I'm sure we can do a trade.

The "petals" of the flower uncurled today, and almost all of the hairs in the throat withered, so if there were any flies in there, they were able to get away. Alas, there was no other open flower for them to pollinate.

Here's a pic:
