A couple of days ago the letter M in Hybrid Teas came through my email but I was too late for most that I wanted. I did manage to get one: Macho Man. It arrived today. Everyone knows what the boxes looks like, but check out this friggin' bush! Holy mother of all roses!! It'll go in the ground tomorrow.. I have it soaking in a bucket of water for the night.

Roses are one of my passions! Just opened, my Etsy shop (to fund my rose hobby)! http://www.etsy.com/shop/Tweet...

LOL, looks you are soaking about 10-25 roses instead of just one!
