All perennials. Right now I have salvias, caryopteris, roses, mints and nepeta, butterfly bushes, skullcap. It's going to hit and miss with some such as the caryopteris, the stems are starting to harden and the temps were pretty high last week. I won't over winter these, hope to get them in ground by October. Some of my roses I don't expect will make it either. I don't propagate them on purpose....they're weed eater accidents.

I'm going to try hardwood winter cutting this year of gardenia and azaleas and some boxwoods. It will be my first attempt ever and plan to start some time in November depending on the weather.
