If your stove has knobs, just pull off the knobs for the oven controls and stick them in a drawer. That's what I do for burners that I don't want used because I've got something on top of them. If it's digital, I suppose you could stick some electric tape over the control to remind you! :)

Karen, yes they sprouted on April 2 last year and the black metal grill and black plastic container I think speeds it up. They sprouted before the ones on a glass patio table but I forget by how much. The secret I learned from Trudi was place them in full sun. The year before I had them in part sun. They sprouted later that way... Trudi these are KBX again since I had so many saved seeds and KBX is one of my fave's. I also have a couple other containers not shown in the pic. I also plan on WSing a 56 cell flat of cosmos, zinnia and dahlia seeds next week after the big storm we are expecting Saturday. This will be my first year WSing annual flowers...:) If anyone is interested, here is the thread on the GW Tomato board where I compared WSing tomatoes vs. Traditional indoor starts: http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/load/tomato/msg0415370714513.html

Oh those look great ! I have a couple kinds of apples and buttermilk so I think I will make them tomorrow. Looks like she has a lot of really nice recipes. Thanks for linking it. We are back to sunny days...but 40's at night. Will be mid 70's again next week. I posted on the Kitchen forum the pretty cookies that DH made...they are Italian and chocolate...what else can you ask for ??? DH made omlettes tonight with sauteed red onion and red bell pepper. He added cheddar and finished them under the broiler...they puff so nicely. I had some tomatillo sauce leftover so i heated that up and we spooned it over...oh wow...it was so yummy. I also made grits in the double boiler. Never have done that before. They take longer but are really creamy and no sticking and also no stirring. Had homemade Challah and homemade elderberry jam and that was that. c

Is the pink KpV highly resistant to balling as is the original?

Have you talked to a vendor about propagating it? (I missed any previous conversation about this gorgeous rose.)

Love your photos, as usual.

I'm terrible about lenses I use the same 70 300 with stabilizer for everything!
It is so much like SDLM I don't think it would make any difference to propagate it.
I got a Chimera this year also part pink part white that usually happens in the fall for some reason!

SDLM

{{gwi:211460}}
has about 40 blooms.
Kronprincessin is just about 5 ft tall and had about 30 blooms
{{gwi:211461}}
madam Wagram continues to be disappointing after 5 years I have only ever gotten 3 blooms in a Spring Flush

{{gwi:211462}}

Pat Austin & Capt Dyel de Graville The Spring Blooms always nod the 2nd flush they usually remain upright

{{gwi:211463}}

I have one other sport of SDLM which is SDLM Rouge and it has struggled for 3 years now & is still only about 1 foot tall & I cut the bud off it hoping for more growth!

Joe, you're trying to make me cry, aren't you? After seeing your paradise of gorgeous roses I can't even bear to go outside to look at my desiccated landscape. The second picture is dreamy but every single rose looks superb. It must be the rain, but I can't even see a single yellow leaf. I have a hard time processing that. If you could see my roses you'd understand.
