Re: Heirloom Old Garden Roses


Oh, how wonderful. I am waiting the arrival of my order from Heirloom Roses.
. .it won't happen until the end of May. I ordered early in January and did
not anticipate such a warm wonderful spring. Contacted them about sending my
order early, but they are not able to do so. . .so, here I sit with beds
ready, my catalogue in hand, and your message. . . there are days I wish I
did not live in Wisconsin. Good luck with your purchases!!!
