Transplant success!

16 years ago

Quite a warm day here in the SF Bay Area. I dug up and relocated, my RDV, Dr. Jamain, Rhapsody in Blue, and Playboy. Out of the four, only Playboy got transplant shock. The other three -not so much as one droopy leaf or flower bud. I am amazed. I thought I would lose all my flower buds.

Wonderful, Poodlepup. Yesterday I dug up and potted 3 cuttings that I stuck in the garden last October. They drooped a little because I left them in the sun, but they're perky now. Good sized plants, too, with buds - except for Mrs B R Cant. Only 2 leaf sets on her.

Grats on plant moving. :)

I still need to replant 3 or 4 roses I brought from our old garden 2 years back - since it was quite hectic, I just stuck them in the ground, "temporary".
