Pacific Northwest Gardening: I Am Starting a Tradition, 1 by beadmom

Whenever I go somewhere (like road trip..not like to Walmart but I like the way you think)..for good or bad I am picking up a rosebush or bushes :). I chose roses because if need be you can find them at a Safeway but in the last two cases I found them at local specialty garden stores. I am trying to get only own root instead of grafted.

When I went to St. Paul, OR for the Miss Rodeo Oregon pageant I got a Cassie (in honor of daughter competing), a Portlandia and a Stars & Stripes Forever.

This week when I went to WA & ID to help with Dad I got a Moonlight and a Rockin' Robin.

Next week I am going to visit where our horse is buried...(Yes one of those tragedies I mentioned...there were a bunch all in 2 weeks time) I'll get something big and bold and fun like he was.
