    Yes I do, didn't you get them from putting cold feet into hot baths or something of sort?

    sorry, HB - all off on a tangent again!

    Your photos are an excellent record of some of the odd effects we're experiencing.

    Dixy, I have just rooted 5 purple bougainvillea cuttings that I brought back from Crete three weeks ago, they are in a heated propagator at 21c so it can be done, although I made sure all the cuttings were taken with a heel which is preferable. [​IMG]
