cutting success

One of the cuttings in my new IKEA cutting starter (a repurposed fancy spice rack) has taken! Rooting the first. Of course, they call this stuff invasive Lonerica in America, and TBH it doesn't need any coddling at all, I can just ram a random branch in anywhere I want a bush, if the birds haven't shat out a seed there already (it berries profusely, juicy purple berries). But don't feel sad, one out of four ain't bad...

Emboldened by my success, I nipped off a cutting of this beauty, that was raving it up in University Parks. It rooted in a week. Cutting tubes are go!!!!
