Zuzu - heheh, beat ya to it.. perused their catalog earlier today jotting down roses that, if available, I'd like. I was wandering around in my back yard this morning and decided that I have room to put in another 40-60 roses, especially if I squish (1-1.5' between rather than 3'). Once I get the roses in, then I can put in other plants to fill in the spaces. And since all my trees are small, I have tons of space around them to put in more roses as it'll be years before they'll have to be moved due to shade. As I was wandering around, I noticed that I only have 3 red roses: Europeana (front yard), Mr. Lincoln (back yard, 3 plants), and Oklahoma (back yard). So, I'm seeing if I can find some other colors other than my infamous blue/mauve (TOO many of those!!! LOL!! Blue Skies, Blue Bayou, Blue Girl, Blueberry Hill, Sterling Silver, Stainless Steel, Singing the Blues, Heirloom, Lagerfeld, Stephen's Big Purple, those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head). So here's my perspective list:

Ice Girl Freelander
Hawkeye Belle
William Shakespeare 2000
Silver Star
Tempi Moderni
Molineux
Lavender Dream
Incense Indigo
English Perfume
Cardinal Hume
Cajun Moon

Yes, there's a couple of more mauves in there, but there's other colors, too. And I'll be trying Molineux again, which I doubt they'll have that on the sale block.

Now back to your purdies. Smiling W/Froggies.
