Rosa Gallica Officinalis availability
Hello,
Does anyone know of a place in Northamptonshire that sells this rose? Also, I understand it is a ground cover rose? How well will it do on the northern side of a house? Cheers |

Well, not many of us live in Northhamptonshire, your worship. It isn't a ground cover rose. It does spread by suckers, but it is too tall -about one meter- to count as a ground cover. It will grow anywhere, north, south, east, west; it won't matter which side of the house it's on. It is perfectly hardy. Jack Harkness's --Roses-- has info on it, as do just about all books about old roses. Suzanne Verrier's --Rosa Gallica-- would be a good choice too. J. Del Col |

I cannot point you in the direction of a better roses newsgroup, but I can tell you that perhaps a few folks here have indeed had some experience with this rose, but were put off by your obnoxious username and email address. I certainly was. (We're only human, after all.) For more information and vendors go he http://www.helpmefind.com/sites/rrr/pl.php?n=2293 Go to the bottom and click on "Nursery / Supplier list by name or region. This is where you can purchase this Rose." Otherwise, you might try calling your local nurseries, since you want to buy locally. I assume you already tried a Google search. Well, I don't find "gOD" offensive, but pergaps I don't discriminate Thanks for the info. We have a few ones that I did try and order the rose from, but under the name "Lancashire Rose" rather than the latin name. I don't know if that will make a difference but I will give it a shot. Cheers |

Seattle Okay, okay. I wouldn't actually HATE to offend a stranger. But I do prefer offending friends or at the very least people who know me a little. |

If I knew you a little better I'd call you an idiot. But I would hate to offend a stranger. So do you think god, God, and gOD are all the same? I think that almost every other religion in the world apart from yours would consider it offensive that you claim that their god is your god (or your god is their god). Difference in case Thanks again for the info though. |

Sounds like it will do just fine then. Cheers |

Difference in case Oh gross, you are one of those deconstructionist creatures. Ick ick ick! I took hairsplitting 101. Religion 101 is on the news every night and here is a FLASH for you--THIS JUST IN: botjh Christianity and those "other religions" tend to believe there is only one God--theirs. I understand it causes some problems. Thanks again for the info though. You're welcome. I still think a nice, neutral username like BOB might get you better results in these places, though. However, this could possibly upset those members of The Church of the SubGenius, who worship the teachings of "Bob", i.e. J.R "Bob" Dobbs, the pipe smoking "teacher" who promotes the all-important principle of "Slack" From the backside of the title page of the religious tome "The Book of the Sub-Genius": First - there was The Gilgamesh Then...the Bhagavad-Gita Then...The Torah, The New Testament, The Koran Then...The Book of Mormon, Dianetics, I'm OK, You're OK. And now... THE BOOK OF THE SUBGENIUS (How To Prosper In The Coming Weird Times) And the all important TriPrimality: "Bob" is. "Bob" becomes. "Bob" is not. Nothing is, Nothing becomes; nothing is not. Thus: Nothing Is Everything. Therefo Everything is "Bob". Abracadaba. Damn, I love a good hot tautolgy in the morning. No cream or sugar. I highly recommend the above book, which is richly illustrated in glorious half-tone black and white. For more information and instant gratification, you can gaze on the wrathful and terrible visage of "Bob" at http://www.subgenius.com/ There, you can get a rundown about how slack can be the guiding principle in YOUR life as well. Also, I think that you can become an ordained minister as well, which will allow you to marry people. Additionally, they promise you "Eternal Salvation or Triple Your Money Back". How many churches make *that* promise, I ask you? So, please don't be as flip when uttering the name of one of the greatest religious visionaries of the latter 20th century. |
