| What size pot would you put the following in? White Cecile Brunner (loved Jeri's) Little White Pet Too Cute (Kim's rose) I have some big black growers pots I could use and then make a wooden box to put the pot in or just buy them some type of toddler safe pot (as much as I want a glazed ceramic to really show case them in reality is I don't want to worry too much about a small child crashing a toy in to them) |

| If they perform there as I've seen here and up north, White Pet and White Cecile Brunner should be in at least seven gallon cans. Too Cute will eventually need a fifteen gallon. Kim |

| How have I missed out on Too Cute? What a little beauty. |

| Thank you! I think so, but I'm prejudiced. If it's happy, it won't remain "little". Did you see Cass' photos of it on HMF? Kim |

| I'd go for really big ones. I'll send you a pix of the ones I have Roseville Noisette in. |

| Yes, Kim, I checked it out on HMF. Lovely little blooms. It's not listed available anywhere on the east coast, unfortunately. |

| Kim, I saw Cass's photo on HMF and realized that I should probably put her in the ground. Some how I was thinking she stayed smaller and I would love to put a couple of pots on wheels so I can keep some almost ever blooming little white sprays of roses on the patios where they are enjoyed constantly. Too Cute with a nice scent would be perfect for one spot...but I think she will get bigger than a pot can keep her happy in. I have a few of those big nursery pots that hold a 2 cu sack of potting soil. Not really pretty but I can build a box. |

| There are some things I keep in a pot TEMPORARILY. Then put them into the ground as a substantial plant, when they outgrow their temporary home. I really need to move that White Cecile Brunner out of her pot. She's definitely outgrown it. Papa Hemeray can inherit it. |

| I think Too Cute will find herself occupying the spot Lady Meggenich is right now. It the good Lady only wants to be a jolly green giant she will be doing it behind a shed |
