    Oh, longk, my friend (a landscape gardener and garden center owner here) has the C ugandense in his garden and it thrives. I could not keep it here with me . I am central Algarve and he east and the climate and soil is so, so different. He is in arid/dry country and I am in the middle of orchards. But again, another beauty.

    It grows so easily from cuttings that it must be worth a go..............

    There is a new one growing out of place and I have marked it as yours, Sis. I am wondering if I should cut it back (how short as it has an very long shoot?), dig it up and pot it?

    :D Hi Sis .. nice to see you visiting again.

    A rooting would be lovely ... yours is the most stunning I have ever seen. I honestly cannot say whether you up-rooting ( :heehee: ) it and putting it in a pot till you go back to Germany end January will be beneficial or not.

    Maybe Pete or longk with more knowledge than us can advise? :help:
