Hey everyone,
I'm hoping that I'll like this forum better than what Houzz has become. I can't even do a search on a topic without getting posts from kitchens or whatever.

My name is Carol. I'm from Alberta, Canada, zone 3.

I've noticed a few names from Houzz here. I followed Witchy's trail that led here. Smiling

Thanks, everyone! I just found this post again. I'm still a little confused. Sticking tongue out

I want to add some pictures to the database...but I'm not doing it right. I added the name of the rose and clicked on next...and nothing happened. It told me not to use quotes around the name...which I wasn't.
Thanks!

Carol, what you are attempting to do is add a new plant to the database and two of them you tried are already included in the database.
The other one, Lorice Wojciechowski, does need to be added and Zuzu will take care of that.
(Cultivar names need to be added to the proposal though, so Lorice Wojciechowski is the cultivar name.)

On the Plant Database page, you can enter the rose name "Sweet Parole" in the search box and it will pop right up. Another option, on the right side is the box "Visit our plant-specific databases:" and click on the Roses and again do the same search (scroll down to find the search box) or you can click on the " Browse the full list of roses and search alphabetically. Probably easier to type in a name though as so many roses have multiple names.
And please ask either Zuzu and myself any questions by private message (click on our names and use the tree-mail link) or ask in the Rose Forum where we are more likely to see your questions. Thumbs up

Actually, Lorice Wojciechowski is a misspelling of Lorise Wojciechowski, which is already in the database. HMF has to be informed that it is wrong in this case.

@Canadian_Rose aka Carol -- Welcome to NGA!

Feel free to ask questions. There's always someone around just waiting to jump in to answer. And conversely, feel free to answer questions.

I don't grow roses but my mother's name was Rose and I've been to Alberta (I think) so I am especially looking forward to seeing your pictures.
