I live in the beautiful Hudson Valley in lower upstate New York with my husband (I call him "My Rosarian")and our 500+ rosebushes.

My Rosarian is the actual gardener in the family. In rosy circles I am known as "The Black Thumb" -- even wrote a newsletter column under that appellation. As horrible a gardener as I am, I have recently become a Consulting Rosarian for the American Rose Society. After living with My Rosarian for 25 years, I have absorbed a lot of knowledge by osmosis.

In my "civilian" life I am a needlepoint designer, singer, calligrapher, rosecrafter and proud "mother" of a 5-lb. toy poodle.

I live in: United States

My zone is: 5B, NY
