Beauty and the Bug

Started propagating some of the more "iffy" plants in my garden. Either they're tender in our zone or will rot if the Winter's too wet.
Got a couple of Salvias done: 'Black & Blue' as well as a collected form of splendid(MUCH bigger than the dwarf forms you find in the garden centers). Also collected some tubercules from the Amorphophallus bulbifer plants. They're hardy here but if it's too wet they'll rot(clay soil). I've had no luck blooming them here though in Florida some Winters they would. They look about like a cross between Calla Lilies and Skunk cabbage, pink through purpleish. Smell like roadkill, not skunk....unfortunately;>! Thankfully, only strongly the 1st couple of days opening.
May do some propagating of hardy plants too this weekend. I've a Gardenia and a Dbl Oakleaf Hydrangea that I wouldn't mind spreading around. Cheers,
Pat
