You know going thru the list in the database and doing comments, it is surprising to me just how many roses I have shovel pruned. Yes that means dug them up and tossed them out of the garden. But rarely thrown out. Only the sickly ones thrown out. The rest I gave to the guy that does my grass cutting as he said his wife loves roses. He has an entire rose garden by now from my discards!
There was not anything wrong with the ones I tossed. I just plan either did not like them or they just insisted on growing to large for my garden.
