Mussaenda - revised

Marietta, GA(Zone 7b)

Anyone had success in growing mussaenda in the Marietta GA area. I know it's a tropical but we're in the process of moving from FL and I'd love to take some cuttings if they'll grow.

I saw a few over in Thailand last week. Reminds me of dogwoods and I can see why you want to bring it along with you.

I would think you should be able to grow it as a houseplant? Check Logees because I think they offer it and should have cultural recommendations.

what a pretty plant! I had to look it up and it is called a "tropical dogwood". Check out http://davesgarden.com/pf/go/37917/index.html - it is considered a "tender perennial".

Sounds like it would do well in a patio pot and then bring it in for the winter...
