But no pictures yet!
I got 4:
Confederate Jasmine for my trellis
4 - Rose of Sharon (large rootings given to me)
Several cuttings of Hydrangea (2 types)
A Butterfly bush
and 7 Pittosporum for a new hedge
and several pieces of Hens and Chicks
You would think I hit the lottery.
A neighbor said I could bring my nippers to her yard any time and help myself!
Hopefully will have some pics soon.

I can't wait till they are large enough to photo. The jasmine is already 'reaching' for the trellis. And I swear, I can see the shrubs growing. We had a torential downpour yesterday, so that should help them along. It's nice when you don't have to buy much and they are just handed to you.
