Hi all, I have proof they are alive and fairly well.  I haven't up potted them yet, but I do have pots ready and wanted to get my regular garden taken care of.  We have had BUCKETS of rain!!   

The first picture is the garden with in-ground tree on April 7, the second picture in on April 21!

The third is my poor neglected cuttings I rooted 2 years ago, and a cutting that was already rooted given to me by a member, so glad it is still alive also!   I did find some pictures from 2 years ago, so I hope I will be able to match the leaf/cup/stem in the pictures to what I have growing. 

The last picture is 2 years ago today!  Even though I didn't prune it this year, it has grown a lot!

Looking good Jo-Ann!  This year they will put on more growth for sure!

Suzi

Looks like you are off to a great season!

Suzi - Your Dessert King is alive!!!  I could tell because it is in the same plastic cup you sent it in!  And it is different from the cups I used.

I also looked more closely at the containers and could make out a few of the markings!!

I have 3 Dessert King and 1 Panache for sure!!  There is also one of my own LSU Purple.  Some of the cups may have the writing lower near the soil so when I re-pot I will do them carefully and look close to make out any writing.

That's great!  Looks like a promising year!
