I am reading this thread and am in zone 10b, wet and humid Southwest Florida. I have 1 Evelyn in the ground, and another in a 2 gal pot waiting to be planted. She has bloomed nicely in a pot that she should have been out of 2 months ago. I was hit by last years Hurricane Ian, so my pool cage was badly damaged, the roof shot, and all else, and that is why she is in the pot for I did not want workers trampling on her. I did however manage to keep the other one safe and secure while the roof was done. This rose is a diehard when grafted on Fortuniana. All roses I have are grafted this way except for the few Austins that I keep in pots that are not available on Fortuniana. I can say that her resistance to disease is just as good or better then my Firefighter, Pope John Paul, and Tiffany. I would also like to put in a shout for Abraham Darby, which may not be as disease resistant, but is doing great when planted properly and in a spot when Afternoon sun ends by 2 pm. I have Evelyn and Abraham planted 4 ft apart at the corner of the house and I could not be happier. It was 99 degrees yesterday and has been in the upper 90's for many weeks on end with heavy humidity. Evelyn laughs at this heat and chugs along kicking out blooms. She also has only been in the ground for 5 months so she will be better and stronger next summer when facing more of the same. Evelyns blooms are long lasting, even when left on the plant. I am getting a solid 4 - 5 days through this intense summer. This rose is at the top of my list for Austins along with A.D, and Munstead Wood.

I had 4 kids in 5 years. I get it. I second the suggestion of the detergent filled bucket, but I usually did not have the energy for that. I just hand washed the offending pair with dish soap in the utility sink and left it until it was time to do the whites. That way any solid matter was washed away and the underwear was more or less clean when it was put in the washing machine. I am lucky enough to have a utility sink and when I was really lazy, I would just let them soak indefinitely until wash day. I would change out the water once a day (if I remembered). Human beings with normal immune systems are able to take on a good bit of bacteria without a lot of problems. Kids are dirty (teenage boys are not much better). Don't stress over it.

I don't know how the coop owning the land would benefit the coop. If the owner sells the land to someone who would want to RE-develop it, I would imagine that the shareholders in the building would have to be bought out ? Why would staying and having to pay an assessment like that make financial sense? I don't think you can mortgage assessments. I know someone who lived in an old tenement style building with tenants there for decades, including one who had been there so long their toilet was still not attached directly to their apartment. A developer bought most of the block, and the payout to several of the long term renters was over $1M each. (If the landlord was able to buy out remaining tenants at a cost of several million dollars, I can only imagine what he was paid by the developer for the building.
