Just a note, everyone -- try to be careful when you quote a post in your
reply (especially as to who said what) and set your newsreader so that it
"marks" the quoted text.

If you look closely at the post below, you will see that it can be hard to
tell who said what to whom -- and all it takes is a teeny difference of
opinion to start a flame war!

As for top vs. bottom posting, there are varying schools of thought about
that, but I almost always top post. That way, it is clear what I am saying,
even though it can be an art to determine the post to which I am replying.
(I left the entire previous thread in here, because it demonstrates the
point of this particular post.)

I am new to here, and so excited to meet you all!! I have been
growing
roses for about 5 years - more seriously now that I have bought my
first house and have plenty of room to grow more roses than ever
before! I currently have about 30 roses, and am putting many, many
more in as I renovate the landscape here at my house { I LOVE!!
saying
"My House" :-) } I look forward to learning, and sharing roses with
you, and making a new gardening buddy or two as well.....:-)!!!

Happy New Year!!
Jamie

Hi Jamie and welcome.

Where are you located? What kinds of roses do you have?

I started with modern roses but quickly added old
garden or antique roses and now have about a
70-30 mix of the two.
