Weeping rose for hanging baskets?
Comments (5)Once Dancing Flame is established, it grows quite upright. It is not a good candidate for a hanging basket.

Horatio Hornblower would be great, (but O'brian's Master and Commander series was a heavy, but wonderful read for me this past year) I also remember a series about a boy named henry, he as always in trouble(or was it a Homer?) diggerb...See MoreQuotes 9 - 3 - 16
Comments (3)I was so fortunate that as a child I had access to the large family library and was allowd to choose my reading material without censorship.
