I call the roses the Queens of the Garden. Something ate the roots of our Lime Sublime, so I put it in a pot. Yes, the roses, are just beginning to open!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10082877661130396437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8997830130858417318.post-37571781592027581262009-05-11T12:33:00.000-07:002009-05-11T12:33:00.000-07:00Thank you, Carol.

On the other hand, the roses that I pruned last month or so are DELIGHTED and abundant. I am a friend to roses now :) Wish I knew how to befriend the wisteria... aren't they beautiful? I hope your venerable one comes back in some form too.Indiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17333639250952967951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8997830130858417318.post-63768758360781022882009-05-11T11:59:00.000-07:002009-05-11T11:59:00.000-07:00A branch rotted off our ancient wysteria and snap-...A branch rotted off our ancient wysteria and snap-off easily in my hands. I am guessing it is over 50 years old, as the house was built in 1954. It is just starting to bloom. I beleive you will get some new growth from wherever it was cut, if not near the roots. they are hardy. You can train the vines to grow in any direction you wish. The blooms appear on the old wood or second year growth. Good luck!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10082877661130396437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8997830130858417318.post-89014313262195494682009-05-06T00:08:00.000-07:002009-05-06T00:08:00.000-07:00Suzy, you are absolutely right.

It was a total over-reaction on the part of some gardener to voluptuous overabundance.<br /><br />How will I protect this lovely plant come next fall with the mad pruner returns? I will have to occupy my porch day and night like a tree-sitter in the redwoods. <br /><br />Anonymous, good idea!! :)Indiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17333639250952967951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8997830130858417318.post-2569308005014430982009-05-05T22:35:00.000-07:002009-05-05T22:35:00.000-07:00Time to watch "The Secret Garden."Time to watch "The Secret Garden."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8997830130858417318.post-73263357480396817842009-05-05T10:55:00.000-07:002009-05-05T10:55:00.000-07:00brutally chopped back to a nub.??!!
