RE: [Rose-list] was: hardiness/now vegative reproduction

Elle,

My bro in law plays with gardening, but not lots of time or knowledge.  He
has successfully started many roses, taking cuttings (with permission) while
garage saleing.  He puts them in water immediately.  You also need to take
it from pencil-width new growth, I believe.  He just sticks in Oregon clay
and covers them with a big jar.  Viola!  A minigreenhouse.  I think he
leaves the jars on for a year or so, even in winter.

For mine is a little old fashioned garden where the flowers come
together to praise the Lord and teach all who look upon them to do
likewise.

I AM in shape.  ROUND is a shape!
