I hope someone here can help me. We have, in the family, an
80-year-old climbing rosebush that my grandfather had started. I've
tried several times, using various methods in books, to get new plants
started from it but I can't seem to get them to root. Does anyone
have a method that would work for a "non-gardener"?

Many thanks in advance.

Rose (yes, that really is my name :-)


Someone asked about seeing the roses. I managed to get a few digital
pictures with an old digital camera. Hope this helps!

If this doesn't work, please let me know and let me know what it is or
isn't doing. Thanks!

PS, beautiful rose!



Thanks! Grandpa was very proud of it. He used to take some of the
roses to the county fair and won the grand prize 3 times in a rose.
According to my aunt, he got to told not to bring some to enter the
next time so someone else could win. :-)
