And Speaking of Grandma and Flowers

Grandma was most famous for her roses; when we turned her house into our office, there was never a question about keeping the rose bushes. Many of her original ones didn't survive the new landscaping, but we planted new ones along the outer fence, and as you drive by either on Higley or Elliot you can see them blooming like crazy. Bias For Action always keeps some fresh ones in a vase on the conference table, and hands them out to visitors. We got some help from a rose expert this year who told us to put a drip irrigation spaghetti on EACH SIDE of the rose bush, and voila! abundant roses. I don't begin to know the various varieties or names, but I sure do enjoy the varied colors.
