I always wanted to make my own standards.... that's really what got me interested in trying. I have a couple of DrH's I've been nurturing and I can probably use them for this venture. I just wish I'd thought of this while there were still roses at the Wooster Roses of Legends and Romance site. If I knew they were going to destroy it, I would have snagged a few of the rarities.
My DH keeps telling me that if I don’t stop buying roses, I’m going to have to open my own nursery, lol! I can’t imagine his reaction if I started reproducing my roses! But I‘d really like to expand my rose options the same way I’m expanding my fruit options. It’s the same problem with fruit trees; they’re all on the wrong rootstock. I’m really encouraged to try this. :-)
