This question came up on another list I belong
to (but not for roses, perennials).  More
specifically, what roses do you grow for
sentimental reasons, childhood memories, etc. 
It was a really wonderful thread on that subject
while it lasted (everything from the obvious --
that mom or grandma grew it to the not so
obvious -- I DON'T grow "x" because it reminds
me of funerals, etc.).

How about it?

Unfortunately, I can't start the thread, because
while we did have a rose garden growing up, but
I don't remember them (we moved from there
by the time I was 8 years old).  After that we
had a gardener, and no roses, just junipers and
grass.  But I'd sure enjoy hearing your stories.
