Re: Hello

Hi Sue,

I wish I could offer some assistance in helping you identify your roses,
but it's difficult without actually seeing them.  You might call your local
ARS or OGRS and see if they might be able to help.  Perhaps they'd be
willing to come out and have a look.

Winter care for Madison, WI...hmm..I'm clueless since I live in the deep
south where  we're not required to take any special precautions.  Anyone
else have any advice?
