What's Shakin' in Grand Rapids, MI...Give yourself (or Mom) some garden color...own root rose bushes $7.99!

Get over to Fruitbasket Flowerland! The front page of their ad ain't lyin'. Big, healthy, budded plants in 1-gallon pots $7.99. These are own-root roses, not grafted. Therefore, they're suited to survive our cold winters.

They're Easy Elegance and Paint the Town type roses. I bought an Easy Elegance named Grandma's Blessing last spring and it's leaping out of the ground right now. I did not winter protect it (or any of my others). No cones, no mounded mulch, no fence around it filled with leaves. No nothin'

This is the one I bought today (on the right). It's named Funny Face. The one below is another option named Sunrise Sunset. This is an unbelievably low price. RUN! They're bound to be gone soon. images from: naturehills.com/own-root_roses.aspx
