Choisya Sundance turning green


Choisya Sundance turning green  (Choisya ternata (Mexican orange blossom))

I took this cutting to brighten the shady border but it's turning green although it's flowering better than it's parent!!

I took a cutting a few years ago and it grew well...then the stems began to turn green so i cut them out at intervals....Its ok now...:>)

I might take a cutting from mine, it suffered through our Winter, and is only just beginning to recover a little..

Mine suffered this year as well..I have had to prune quite a bit back...looks really scraggy this year..although it is in flower...
