I see posts like this, and I get tickled and excited. I miss the days when I could pick new roses to add to the collection. Alas the garden is peaked on roses, and now with water prices skyrocketing, I've been removing some. Looks like some great choices from what I know Toni. I remember I use to keep up really well on the new names too, but alas...that has faded too. The roses I have will be the roses in my garden when I pass on. My rose collection is complete. Unless one dies because a dripper clogged or something...that hasn't happened in the pass 5 years, since I switched to a new type of drip nozzle. I enjoy all of you posting the pictures of your new roses as they bloom. I know that anticipation of watching the buds form, then the sepals peel back...then the blooms. I live vicariously through you.
Thank you for allowing me this privilege!
