I was going to put all kinds of expletives in the title, but I figured I'd be nice to innocent eyes.
Last Wednesday, got an email from EuroDesert about their grandifloras being up for sale, so I asked Cliff if his Silver Star & Shreveport were still available as he only had one of each. He said that they were, so I ordered them from him. I knew that from what Zuzu had been getting I should be getting some pretty rose bushes.
Holy crap.
Got home from work last night & found this on my door step.
Opened the box & was greeted with this:
Inside the black bag was wet papers that were still wet. There was yet another bag inside. Here's Silver Star. This bush took up the ENTIRE box.
And Shreveport.
I went to the west side of my house & planted them there. I had lost a few roses there from the winter (Sir John Betjeman, Portlandia, Shocking Blue), so I need to put things in their spots. I'm going to see if I can find another Shocking Blue to replace the one I lost, but just not from RU. They just can't survive my winters. *cries*
