I look forward to the beautiful blooms posted by Zuzu and Sue!!! This is the first thread that I go to each morning with my cup of coffee. It starts my day in a very positive way. I'm curious to know the nature of the rose gifts to each other. Are they newly purchased bushes or have you two been able to successfully grow them from cuttings? Just wondering if I could start sharing my bushes from cuttings and whether you have a real success story with this type of propagation.
