About me: Actively volunteer in the Sacramento Old City Cemetery Historic Rose Garden, which has over 400 historic roses. Most of these roses were "found" in old cemeteries, homesites, and roadsides throughout California. In my spare time, I volunteer as a Master Gardener, write a garden column for a group of neighborhood papers, and garden at home. I fall asleep counting roses, and wake up thinking about gardening. Life is good!

My zone is: USDA 9/Sunset 14
