Picture of Roses that you've had for a long time?
Comments (7)You can hybridize , or grow open pollinted seedlings from rose seeds. Please be aware , they will not be a exact replica of the roses you are currently growing(unless of course they are species).. some will be marginally terrible, some will be complete dogs, others might have habits you are not looking for, or terrible desease resistance. The chances of finding a true gem out of the bunch will be small.. like with any hybridizing adventure, however Im not trying to deter you from it, its always fun to see your own babies, and that 1 out of a 1000 times you look at something and its developed the attributes you want, is a very rewarding experience regardless of the genus you are trying.

Comments (28)I posted earlier about Tranquil Waters... a GREAT plant. I grow a few more Stamiles' on this thread right now. Here's my take: ABSOLUTE TREASURE- Gorgeous flower. Major rust magnet in my garden. I love the bloom and keep the plant, but I wouldn't recommend it based on the rust-magnet factor. I have several Stamile plants within touching distance and they are regularly unaffected. DRUID'S CHANT - Grows right next to ABSOLUTE TREASURE in my garden and is alway vigorous. I divided it in July (we've had a drought this year) and didn't do anything special to the pieces I put back in the ground. They look like they were never disturbed. Great plant - I highly recommend it! ALL FIRED UP - Amazing plant. Even though I'm not fond of oranges, this is one of my favorite plants year after year. Great blooms, great foliage, great plant. BLUEBERRY FROST - Almost tossed this one last year. I've had it for 3-4 years and it never did much. This summer, WOWEEWOW! Even though we had a pretty bad drought, BLUEBERRY FROST was an amazing performer. RAINBOW EYE - much nicer now that I've moved it to a place where it gets some afternoon shade. In all-day sun, it has a tendency to scape-blast in my garden. I was going to get rid of all of it last summer - dug it and didn't do anything with it. Last December, I planted it in my garden (it had been on my back porch in a grocery bag since July) and said,"if you live, you live." I told myself that I would sell it all at my Daylily Club's public sale (July 2007) if it lived. It was so pretty in its new spot that it never made it to the public sale. :) LAVENDER RAINBOW - What a great plant! Beautiful blooms, great plant habit. I love this one! CHANCE ENCOUNTER - Lovely and vigorous. LET LOOSE - I didn't think I would like Spiders - this one changed my way of thinking. I needed tall and yellow so I took a chance. It is currently the only thing blooming in my garden, although WILD AND FREE (Stamile), has put another scape. I love-love-love this plant!! CERISE MASTERPIECE - I brought this one home from the Stamile garden last April. It is a magnificent plant. Tall scapes, large blooms, amazing color. It was the first plant I ever spent $150 for and I don't regret it for a nanosecond! There are several others, but this post is long enough!!

Comments (22)Thanks for the replies. I guess anything is normal looking at the answers. Dances - did you ever look into Sheehan's syndrome? Not being able to breastfeed due to no milk production is a major sign of Sheehans. I don't know if you ever had a large amount of blood loss (especially while pregnant or shortly after), which is a cause of Sheehan's. That is what I am looking into since I had a hemmorrage after a miscarriage and D&C about 25 years ago. The syndrome affects the pituitary - so it can cause thyroid, adrenal and ovarian problems as well as diabetes....See MoreWhat's the lates you've still had Dahlias blooming?
Comments (16)Probably can't find the source of the hormones statement but they would not make eyes and sprouts without hormones, which they can definitely do after the tops are cut. So it seemed plausible when I read it. While I was looking, I found an article on using lighting to prevent tubers from forming, just to learn more about how they respond to light, which was pretty cool. The word hormone was never mentioned there, either but they would be involved. http://www.gpnmag.com/article/manipulating-dahlias/ FWIW, Google defines hormones: "a regulatory substance produced in an organism and transported in tissue fluids such as blood or sap to stimulate specific cells or tissues into action." The plants in my yard were finally hit. Next week should be in the mid 50s, perfect for digging....See MoreUser
