| Hi all, now everyone is thinking of this years rose orders. In one of my increasingly rare spare moments I was inspired by the beauty of Tipsy Imperial Concubine, and figured I'd better pull my finger out and figure out how to upload...I've posted a piccie on the Gallery. I accidentally bought two last season and am glad I did. Very nice indeed. |

| Oh! I love this rose so much! I did't know one could get it in Oz! Racing over to Gallery now to sigh over your pic, Snodge. MUST get this one. My 2005 list is now a total wreck-o-rama. |
Good grief

| I'm obviously too giddy to find the pic. You'd think I was looking for a lost child in a department store. What did you call your shot? |

| Hi Snodge Glad to hear from you again. Missed your sensible comments for a few weeks. TIC is gorgeous - I saw it at a rose garden last week but will also try and find your gallery. |

| Snodge! Had given you up for dead-to-the-world-due-to-house-building. How is the building going? Is your garden surviving the workmen? Welcome back. |

| House building still in planning phase, but SOOOOO many fundamental decisions beyond the size shape of the house - and that's challenging enough. Work keeping me very busy too, and to cap it off I'm doing a tertiary course for work as well, Just one subject, which fortunately work has got UNSW to run the classes during working hours close by the office. I pop in to the forum for a very brief lurk occassionally..but you know me once I start writing, so hard to stop.....:o) Garden has been getting a bit more neglected than usual lately, though now the weather has cooled a bit, I'm trying to put in the time to dead head and throw a *little* water around on a hose day once in a while. Lovely flush of roses just now, and hence the piccies of TIC. I'm a bit worried about the garden actually with the house and all, with the new Basix requirements they include your garden in the calculation, with a big push for drought tolerant stuff specially natives...I think roses are remarkably drought tolerant, but somehow I doubt the department of planning agrees.....anyhow, we have such a large garden that will count against us as well....at least the other half of the yard is natives... |

| Oh, I should probably say, the lengthy planning period is a relief gardenwise. It's looking like the house will interfere with my favourite rose bed afterall (we were hoping to avoid it)- mostly teas, and my wonderful mislabel, not to mention daylilies, irises and such....so I'm pleased I should have the cooler months while plans go through council and my other half settles into a new job, to shift precious stuff out of the way. |
