Hi!

Thanks for the great tip.  I intend to try it.  If nothing else it will
make it much faster and easier to get them dug when I do the dirty deed.

I have about 2 dozrn miniatures and about 20 regular sized roses, with
one climber in the bunch, that I plan to move.  I have limited space at
the new place so I have to plan carefully what to keep.

I will try to keep everyone posted on my progress with the moving.

Tonight I am clerking at the county fair.  I will be working in the 4H
section and in the garden entries.  There will be very few flowers
entered by the 4Hers.  Lots of squash and melons and cukes plus most
other vegies.  I do not have to judge, thank goodness.

Time to get off to work.
