Oh, the reasoning for this "poll" is because he was thinking that people here would want to be growing OGRs (Heirlooms) because that's what hipsters do, grow / collect "vintage" things. I tried to explain to him that gardeners aren't going to be hipsters and people here aren't that goofy, but he just didn't know. That's the whole reason behind this. Denver is heavily populated with hipsters and they're SOOOO annoying.. Plus I tried to explain that people here grow roses because we love roses, not because it's cool or hip or anything. There's nothing hip about bleeding from an overly blood-thirsty rose with a billion thorns on it... (George Burns / Charles de Mills.. I'm looking at you...)
Roses are one of my passions! Just opened, my Etsy shop (to fund my rose hobby)! http://www.etsy.com/shop/Tweet...
