Thanks Yorkshire, this is the color at it's end. The color when it first opens is a really dark blue. Didn't get it in time as this is a new cutting. This is going to be a tree full of these flowers....can't wait.

Uhm, what is it?

I don't know yet. I saw it in town two days ago and now I have a cutting. I hope it takes. I have a picture of the tree but was taken with my mobile and not very good.

I was reading up on it, poisonous if eaten...
I'm going to train mine into a tree form.

I have Sanbaz and I was shocked. We have soooo many poisonous plants around us. I've warned my kids, especially my four year old.....no putting hands in mouth after touching plants.
