I totally agree with you, Mike.
I've learned so much from others, like
@Calsurf73 (Mike) in California - my expert on roses (especially climbers), and
@Zuzu, a grower of more than a thousand roses in California, and so many others (so far away) that I won't give up the site. The lily growers who have blooms when we have snow make it a joy to be here, regardless of the season.
I don't even get pop up ads!
