Zuzu - probably because not too many people would recognize the word "Deuil" but immediately would recognize "Devil", so, thinking that it's a typo, the word & the name gets changed. Or it could be various other countries in English spelling things differently (ie: color vs colour)? Or maybe people are just retarded? I'm leaning towards the last of the 3. Rolling on the floor laughing

I'm not too worried on Orange Honey as that's going in my minibed and that area is really heavily protected from cold/snow due to the proximity to the house/garage. I can have 2' of snow in the middle of my yard and see bare mulch in my minibed. Plus it's usually 10degs warmer there because of next to the house. And I'm planning on remulching the whole bed this fall with at least 6" of fresh new mulch, so everything's gonna be pretty buried.

I can't wait! *happy dance!!* I love her roses.. I've only lost 2 out of all that I've ordered from her, which, for me, is outstanding! I wish I had that kind of luck with ALL the companies I've ordered from! Pickering I'm 100% loss, Edmunds was 1/3rd loss (1 outta 3, and the two to survive are pathetic, lost Royal Amethyst), Garden Valley are all surviving this year, but lost everyone from last year, Roses Unlimited is about a 50% loss... only Palatine has been super successful with almost a 100% survivability (lost 1 out of the 4 from last year, all this year looks to be strong plants). I'm going to say, however, that almost 100% of my fault. I lost everyone from Chamblees, from Heirloom, and someone else that I can't remember. John's Miniatures were about a 80% survivability, so I guess that's not bad considering how incompetent I am. Thumbs up
