Bip, here's a link to a post I did about taking rose cuttings and rooting them. It works, I've done it for lots and lots of roses. The only caveat...
Thank heavens one of us has fashion sense!
Syd, your heading "Sideshoots and Runners" brought to mind my first propagation attempts. I found that pegging in a long rose cane could lead to...
V, beekeeping is more than a hobby, it is almost a vocation. After you find out how a bee colony works, and how each bee has a "job," and how to...

I was going through the gift wishes from some of the local food pantry patrons, trying to match up donors and those who might not have a great...
You haven't received "the look" until you have gotten it from a cat. Feliz can make ME want to crawl under the bed when she gives me the offended...
