PPal - I love the funguslessness.. makes 100% perfect sense. And I don't think I can survive my short growing season either.. probably within 5-10 years we'll be moving to someplace a little more south (Home: NM). I hate Colorado.. I really really do.
On the plus side, some of my roses are really starting to blossom in the front. Well, the ones that I deadheaded a few weeks ago. All my Perfume Tigers have blooms on it, my poor little bitty Moonstone, which is less than 8" tall has 1 massive bloom on it (blossom's almost bigger than the entire bush), Picante has given me a perfect orange blossom, Intrigue smells like heaven finally, Blue Bayou is giving me a second round of drop-dead gorgeous blue roses (these are bluer than Blue Girl, IMO), and Midnight Blue is finally happy and is blossoming in almost 100% shade. I had her in the front getting way too much sun and it was getting crisped. I moved it to my shaded corner right next to the house and the blossoms are to die for. I'll have to get some pictures of them tomorrow.
