A rectangle pond/rill like you often see in The English Garden mz would be wonderful! We have pergola posts up already- waiting to start the top section once the weather is good again. Have a very nice custom built picket fence, I always want more antique and Austin roses!! I want vintage apples trees, and DH wants a seckel pear or maybe two. And I guess my version of a hunky garden slave may be a bit different than some- I'd tend to wish for one like a Ralph or Joseph Fiennes type, or even Ioan Gruffudd (in the film 'Amazing Grace') or howsabout like Julian Sands from 'A Room with a View'?? Sigh... forget having him do the weeding, I need someone to deadhead our 100+ roses! Having him serve me tea would be lovely... And to plant all new cottage garden plants that I bring home, giving DH a break! To see recent (okay, last year) pics of our front and back gardens, and the secret garden for the children, check out my picturetrail albums: careytearose Here is a link that might be useful: look at Landscaping Projects 2007, Favourite ROSES We Grow albums

Thank you everyone! Adding a few more before I have to leave! Hopefully DH will take good care of my babies while I'm away. Oh how I wish I have George's Plumie Cam just about now. :( Looks like my Divine doesn't have as much color break anymore. So maybe the virus is going away? My Saigon Moon definitely does not have the intense colors as Laura's. But I got this from John who got the cuttings from Bud... so I'm sure it has something to do w/ my cooler temps. Tiger still looking good to me. :) Cherokee Geisha is soooo soooo pretty. I adore her! Queen Amber my new love. She is so beautiful but so hard to capture. Truly photos do not do this beauty justice. But beauty aside, she has this hypnotic sweet scent that just makes me crazy! I want to get another one already. Thailand Red. Another beauty with gorgeous sweet scent. I detected an inflo on my Arztec Gold and Musk Rainbow this morning! Woohoo! Thank you for looking!

Love the adeniums! Really like how you have them all on stands. Something I've been considering trying to do in my small back yard. Kirk

Hi: You should get a notice in your email that I posted this here. It is called 'Lady Margaret', it is usually at Lowes/HomeDepot, in a 3 gallon and 1 gallon pot. I just saw it online at 'almosteden.com', an online plant nursery, for $12.99 plus shipping. And it lists other places to buy it. WalMart included. Don't know the sizes, you need to check that. It grows very fast, the vine is thin and wiry. I would think you could pot it up into a BIG pot, like a 5 gallon bucket?, and put a trellis behind it, and it would grow like up it like a weed. It flowers all year for me. IF Pensacola gets freezing temps, yes you would have to cut it back, and protect the roots, and try to keep some stems alive, till spring. But mine has lived for 5 years now, through temps. of the high 30's, low 40's. But only for like 5 days. Past that, I dont know how long it can handle low temps. Hope this helps.
