My Mandevilla has more than double in sized over the

My Mandevilla in the backyard saw some light frosts in the spring, but it has grown really well since. Imagine how fast it would grow if the roots weren't confined to a pot!

Passiflora "Berkley" about to make the first bloom of the season.

I thought I lost this Mexican Petunia over the winter, but I potted up the roots anyways to see what would happen. It ended up growing back without a problem! Every single plant that I thought died over the winter ended up coming back eventually.

Thanks for looking!

Potted Livistona pic.
