I have a wonderful family with 2 girls ages 14 and 20. We live in Upland, in a charming house surrounded by a lemon grove! My roses have been an essential part of my life. Sometimes they help keep me sane when times get tough.. I prefer organic gardening but break that rule when I need too.
We left our ranch for health reasons but we still have family animals Rocky and Mikku our doggies, our cats, and a horse.
You are always welcome to email me! I welcome emails from my forum friends and answer their emails as quickly as possible.
In my new rose garden I am currently growing: Heirloom, Paradise, Arizona, Mr. Lincoln (3), Rosy Dawn, Just Joey, Miss All American Beauty, Golden Masterpiece, Hot Cocoa, Abbaye De Cluny (2), Gemini, Playboy, Double Delight (3), Fragrant Plum, Fragrant Cloud. Lowell Thomas , Burgundy Iceberg, Tiffany, Granada and my all time favorite a salmon blend that never made it to market and has an incredible scent, one rose claims to be Oldtimer but I think it might be another Just Joey and some mystery cuttings that are missing tags. My memory is giving me problems so I cant remember all of the other roses I am growing.
