for Rosefolly re Crimson Glory

10 years ago

Rosefolly - I sent you an email, but did not get a response. Perhaps you are out of town. Anyway, just wanted to let you know that the rose I have in a pot which I thought might be a rooted cutting of my Crimson Glory has bloomed, and it is definitely that rose. It has three canes, two of which are trying to climb already (one is 6 ft long), so it really needs to go into the ground. Pls email me re when you would like to come and pick it up. Here is a picture of the latest bloom on my original plant:

Jackie - 'Rosefolly' is in England with me at the moment. I gave her your news and the response was (approximately) 'Wheeee! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!!'

She is going cold turkey on the internet on this trip, but will contact you when she returns - probably on the 28th.

Best wishes,
Jon

Jon - Thanks so much! I was pretty sure when I did not hear from her that she was on vacation, but now I know for sure. Please tell her that so far a deer has eaten the top third of one of the brand new longer canes, but I'm sure that won't bother the plant in the long run - I have sprayed it with that rotten egg anti-deer stuff, so hopefully that won't happen again.
