just had an after-school 1 minute biggest-worm-finding
contest with my 8 year old grandson. Mom showed up with 10 seconds to go so another dig is planned. But Gramma was ahead! Donna |

Ma!! WOuld you do me a favor?? If I sent you some picutes of the
house, would you give me some advice on what roses to get and where to put them?? DH has decided that we are staying put, so we might as well make the house look *good* and he knows I like roses. SO...I told him I would ask my favorite rose expert for advice before I started buying willy-nilly.

I just got back from the desert house. I have a rose there that
is my so very favorite. It was there when we bought the house so I am not sure what it is. Maybe you know Butterfly. It is a pretty lavender tea rose with the most wonderful fragrance. Not a real tall and elegant flower but full. I cut a mess to bring home and with those and the big bunch of lilacs the car smelled like a funeral parlor (or cat house) by the time I got home. I love yellow roses and am not a lavender person but this lavender rose is absolute tops for me. TAria Butterfly wrote: Deer Dorter, Ware iz de pix?

Off the tip of my head, without going out nod counting them, I have 6 or 7
lavender roses--all having wonderful fragrances and different characteristics and petal shapes (Most of my roses, but not all, have fragrance--a couple I got just because of their shape/color and paid no heed to whether or not there was any aroma) A couple of them have 'frilly edges' , a couple the edges look like a folded envelope, and the rest are 'normal' edges. Lots of variance--so I would need a pix and a bit more about its habits before I would hazard a guess. Another thing you might like to do is go to : www.everyrose.com , go to search, and go to the color category, and peruse that line.....best I can do for a quickie answer ; ) Butterfly (ohhhhhhh, I love roses) "Taria" wrote in message news:3MV6e.10555$Zn3.9855@trnddc02...
