I've seen their bands come through the Society's Rose sale.. about the same size as I'd get from RU. But, when the head lady at the Society hadn't even heard of BlueGirl, which is a rose that's older than dirt? WTH? I can't remember how much they were selling 'em for.. I think it was like $15/ea, which is not bad, but when you can get a 1gal band size for $15, or a 3gal rose at a LGS (Paulinos) of the same variety for $22, wonder what you're gonna take? Alan - I love bright gaudy colors, the more ridiculously blinding, the better. It's the Mexican in me..can't help it. High Country has mostly pinks & whites.. and the whites are actually pinks, the last time I looked at their availability (last spring). Since my garden is going to be a garish riot of colors (the gaudier, the better.. kinda like my Christmas lights), soft pale colors really don't work well.
Roses are one of my passions! Just opened, my Etsy shop (to fund my rose hobby)! http://www.etsy.com/shop/Tweet...
