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 |

I started with modern roses but quickly added old garden or antique roses and now have about a 70-30 mix of the two. Gail near San Antonio TX Zone 8 |

Gail near San Antonio TX Zone 8 hello, I drift in and out of here, usually a lurker type guy. I work for the nursery section of a retailer, I grow a couple roses in my own yard as well. You Can Do IT.. anyway, I'm here in western Indiana. throw seeds on the ground and water them, you're probably going to get something to grow from it. the two rose shrubs I can remember the names of are :Fragrant Cloud and Oklahoma. the other is a nice hybrid tea that is a sweet Buttery yellow and the other is a coral climber that I forget the name of. I started growing roses for my Wife, I figured it's better to spend 20 bucks on a shrubbed rose that gives great flowers all summer long than ito buy a dozen roses from a florist that will be thrown away in a week. oh and she likes Lillacs too. -- If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

m... 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. When I reply, if I don't get the before each line I'm replying to, I add it in manually. Not everyone will do that. ::shrug:: I don't know what the solution is, I suppose some incompatibility of mail servers is causing it. If there's a technical fix, I'd like to know it (save me typing all those g 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! True, but this was a mild, informative exchange and I don't see any reason for problems. Still, I suppose the warning is worth it. As for top vs. bottom posting, there are varying schools of thought about that, but I almost always top post. I know ngs that will flame you for even saying that! Personally, I think it depends on what you're replying to. I tend to bottom/mid post, because that's what I "grew up" with and what most people seem to prefer. But I certainly don't mind a top post in many circumstances. 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.) Yep. And I deleted it to save bandwidth. :) We should probably have switched the subject header to OT, but there's so little traffic in rgr these days, I figure why bother. Hey, Anne, how are your roses doing? Anne Gail near San Antonio TX Zone 8 |
