The promise of thngs to come...
Comments (2)Yep, I agree! It seems like just overnight things have popped up and everything is GREEN again! The roses are sprouting like crazy; the lilies are coming up out of the ground; the irises are shooting up new leaves, and some even have stems with buds already! It really is a wonderful time of the year. I particularly enjoy seeing new canes and healthy new growth on the roses also. Makes me feel like they're going to get big and beautiful very soon!!...See Morepink promise in my November garden

Comments (15)Melissa: Only a Minnesotan understands what 'up north' means! I know how much the area has grown - we visited last Fall. We lived two blocks from Lake Nokomis for 20 years and I didn't grow hostas then!!! How stupid was that! Our dearest friend moved from Burnsville to south of the 'southern' Crosstown Hwy (can't remember the name of the place - but maybe it's Lakeville!) We get up there maybe once a year and there is a nursery I want to see that is apparently never advertised and isn't even in the phone book - I just found out about it from a friend - so if I take the time to do some relaxing stuff, it'd be fun to see your gardens! I'll save this post and let you know if/when! Thank you for the invite. Actually, it'd be fun to see your place next summer. It'll be absolutely gorgeouser.

Comments (1)My vote is hire someone to remove them. No, cutting them back and covering will not kill them. I would cut them down, then hire someone to dig the roots out. That would be the easiest, and cheapest route. good luck! Your rose garden will look wonderful!...See Moreingrid_vc so. CA zone 9
