This is the stretch I'm thinking of. It's about 6' long x 2' wide.

I was thinking of trying some sweet peas in the garden. Anyone know which ones are the most fragrant? I have a whole section behind my roses (full morning sun) that I was thinking of planting cottage type flowers there. Any ideas?

Carol, I totally relate...I don't know what I would do if I didn't have my gardening!!  I love to propagate in all different kinds of vases of water...I have them all over the house starting little babies for spring!  I haven't found many plants that you can't start that way!  I'm starting an Avocado for the first time ever and am so excited! :)

Leilani you should see roots in about 4 to 6 weeks. Sometimes I just put a bunch of cuttings in a bucket of water and I forget about them. lol...when I go back they all have roots and I Put them in pots...Have given away many.. I have one for 2 yrs and it is very big ...have to trim back...they grow very quickly. They will bloom by the end of summer if you start them now.

leilani, I have taken the flowers and cut long stems to put in vase and they root if you leave them long enough in vase.

Leilani, you can propagate gardenias by cuttings I have 10 of them started. Just put a cutting in water until it has roots and put in soil and in about 3 months you will have gardenias. I started a cutting last summer  and it is already blooming this spring.

I have 3 gardenia bushes and when u enter my little courtyard the smell is heavenly and combined with the wisteria it is my little piece of heaven.

The most fragrant of all that I have found is a sweet olive tree..I went to garage sales with friends and we went down this one street and the smell in the whole neighborhood was so awsome...I have one started and the smell is so glorous.

In Louisiana my hibiscus always comes back...Have 4 of them and they go dormant in winter but in spring they are the first to start leafing..
