this acalypha was a cutting that i thought had died over winter. It grew beautifully until we had all the rain on Australia day weekend. I dug it up and replanted it but it's not happy :-(

Here is my Tibouchina Jules before the rain.

Unfortunately the weight of the rain on all the buds made the bush split right down the middle and close to the ground.

  the bougainvillea spurted ahead with the rain and some dynamic lifter.
