After bearing up through the first two weeks of Tim Tebow struggling as Denver's starting quarterback, Sunday's game was a grand change. It was the first time I've seen the Broncos play like a complete team in a long time. It was good to see, and I can't wait to see how much they can hold up to it consistently - they were able to put all the pieces together and despite Oakland's protests that they expected it, it clearly caught their players off guard on the field. Stellar performances by the OL, Willis McGahee and Tebow, as well as a couple of nice catches by Eric Decker and an outstanding performance for Eddie Royal (with a tie-breaking punt return TD and a TD reception) rounded off a resounding route of the much-disliked (okay, hated) division rival.
The best part of the entire game was to see each aspect of the team (offense, defense, and special teams - even with that punting mishap near the end zone) contribute greatly to the final outcome. Without any one of them coming through on the right plays, the game goes down as a loss. With all three working together, the Raiders did not seem to know what hit them. It was by far Tebow's best all-around performance to date and Denver's best game of the season.
Good Morning, Broncos fans! Andrew Brandt points out that the deadline has passed for teams to extend players' contracts and confine the financial impact to the 2011 salary cap. This means it's likely Denver will allow Eddie Royal, Daniel Fells, Marcus Thomas, Brodrick Bunkley, Wesley Woodyard, Mario Haggan, Joe Mays, and Matt Prater become free agents, among others (not that it's a shock). Based upon their respective roles, age and what interest they'd likely command on the open market (not much, frankly), I'd say the only one I'd like to have seen locked up would be Prater - and Denver can always franchise the guy if they're unable to reach agreement with him after the season. Then again, the team is still able to work on a new deal with any of these players until the day before the season finale, and Denver has plenty of cap room - so any guaranteed money would be prorated over the length of the contract rather than assigned to the 2011 cap.
Obviously it'd be nice to hang onto most, if not all of those other guys, but the question is at what cost and rather than which potential draft/FA replacements? Even if Denver were interested in keeping Royal, it's safe to presume he'll want to test the FA waters to find a situation where he can start instead of potentially being stuck behind Eric Decker and Demaryius Thomas in a run-first (and second) offense. The question to consider is whether there will be better, cheaper and/or younger options available in the offseason, and the only resounding "no" in that regard is Prater.
Lost in the Tim Tebow debate this year has been the upswing on the defensive side of the ball.
The Broncos have yet to become the defense they really want to be. That much is clear. Yet they are no longer last in the league in yards allowed per game (22nd).
Much of this incremental upswing can be attributed to Von Miller and the signing of Brodrick Bunkley. However, I believe the signing of defensive coordinator Dennis Allen--along with his aggressive style and 4-3 scheme--has been a big factor. We all thought Allen would create more pressure on the quarterback. It turns out Broncos fans were correct in that assumption.
Today I'd like to look at some of the tools that Allen uses against the pass to get the most out of a defense that was one of the worst in Broncos history only a year ago.

Good Morning, Broncos fans! In his weekly film review, Andy Benoit is stunned that Oakland didn't spy Tim Tebow as much as Miami had, and he's baffled that the Raiders were so ill-prepared for Denver's zone read when considering the Broncos' lack of offensive diversity. Yes, Tebow & Co. had a few big pass plays including the two scores, but if 113 net yards on 23 attempts + sacks were enough to keep a defense honest, the whole league would be showing a 60/40 run/pass split every week. Seriously. It will be an outright shock if any Denver opponent going forward does not truly sell out to stop the run and keep Tebow in the pocket; doesn't mean it'll work or that the Broncos won't be able to win any more games in Sunday's manner (presumably Tebow will make at least some plays through the air, and hopefully the defense plays better than it has been), but don't expect other teams to be so hapless in defending the zone read.
Benoit also blames personnel for Oakland's problems (the absence of LB Rolando McClain), and on the other side of the ball, Benoit thinks the injury to C Samson Satele and their typical slew of penalties are what caused the Oakland rushing offense to go from gashing Denver early to struggling later. Benoit saw Dennis Allen's use of Von Miller as an inside blitzer as a great new wrinkle and isn't yet buying the notion that the real Elvis Dumervil is quite back.
Happy Victory Tuesday, friends. I hope you're ready for a Serving, because I've got one for you. I'm in last place in the picks competition, and a primary reason why is that I'm now 2-6 in picking Broncos games. (I had them losing to Green Bay, and beating Miami.) You can't win them all, I guess, and I just don't seem to have a great feel for when the Broncos are going to play well. Maybe if I read the DP rather than Doug's parsing of their work, I might know if they "had a good week of practice."
Anyway, today we're going to explore in detail why the Broncos beat the Raiders on Sunday. It was a total team win, as has been said, but more than that, I would say that it was the first time this season that the offense pulled its weight. Aside from a couple of missed throws by Tim Tebow and some penalties (I'm looking at you, Ryan Clady) it was a consistent and productive effort. Since offense is kind of my thing, I'm excited to spend some time talking about it. Ready… BEGIN!!
Good Morning, Broncos fans! In his latest mailbag, Mike Klis says he doesn't know how far the zone-read can take Denver, but it's the best offense for Tim Tebow to be running at this point. Plus, he thinks the Broncos will clearly be targeting a top cornerback and defensive tackle in next year's draft, along with of course a quarterback and a running back. Klis thinks Denver will try to hang onto Brodrick Bunkley, who is a free agent after this season, along with Marcus Thomas.
As for quarterbacks, Klis also says that the new rookie pay scale could make a big trade up in the draft to get one to be more palatable, as the cost is more about the picks being dealt away rather than a huge chunk of guaranteed money as in the past. He thinks that unless Miami has the #1 pick, Denver will have a chance to trade up to select Andrew Luck.
Google+ released "business pages" today, similar to fan pages on Facebook, a place for your brand to have its own page.
So we jumped on it and It's All Over, Fat Man! now has its own Google+ page.

Happy +1-ing.
The IAOFM staff discuss the Denver Broncos' 38-24 Week 9 victory over the Raiders in Oakland
Doc: Hi, folks
Ted: Happy Sunday, guys
Doug: Hey guys - lots of boring football so far today. 6 of the 7 losing teams have 13 or fewer points, and the other has 16 - and only one game closer than 10 points
Ted: Yeah, it seems like it. I was at a Browns watch party a little while ago, and they had a couple of other bad games on too. Hopefully this game is more interesting
Doc: I saw a headline to the extent that Cleveland is getting tired of Hillis and might even let him go. Any truth, or just media pandering?
Ted: It's been the word on the DL around here all season
Doug: Lombardi says part of Denver trading him was because of the same stuff
Ted: The thing about White Boy Day is that eventually tomorrow comes. He's a good player who does a couple things well and a couple poorly - that's been my take all the way
Continue reading "Chewing the Fat: Week 9 - Broncos at Raiders"
Good Morning, Broncos fans! It all went according to plan yesterday, as Denver was able to exploit the Raiders' struggling run defense to the tune of 298 rushing yards, won the turnover battle (three Carson Palmer INTs to no Denver giveaways) and got a big special teams play in the form of an 85-yard Eddie Royal punt return to beat the Raiders 38-24 (box score). In other words, the Broncos finally turned the tables on Oakland and beat them at their own game, physically outmatching them for the first time in over two years.
Willis McGahee gashed Oakland for 163 yards and two scores, while Tim Tebow added 117 rushing yards and two sharp TD passes, one each to Eric Decker and Royal. Tebow took just two sacks and did not fumble, clearly playing better than he had against Detroit even if he still threw some brutal passes throughout the game; Tebow ended up with a 98.1 QB Rating for the game and is now 2-1 as a starter this year (3-3 for his career) with both wins coming on the road (Denver won only one road game last year, at Tennessee).
There was a quarterback today who looked lost, threw multiple interceptions, drowned in the pocket, and lost the confidence of his entire organizaton and city.
His name wasn't Tim Tebow.
Tebow was all but given up on a week ago; multiple reports had him walking the plank by halftime.
Those reports have been greatly exaggerated.
Yo, ho, ho, and a bottle of Broncos Kool-Aid. Tim Tebow used the zone-read option to escort the
Raiders dancing pirates to Davy Jones' Locker.
Avast, Broncos fans. Tebowmania is back for another voyage.
Let's get to the Positive, the Negatives, and the Who the Heck Knows?

Peach twig borer
Hi all,
My stone fruit trees have been descimated this year by peach twig borer. I tried 5 applications a week apart of spinosad last month, but they are back with a vengeance. This season seems futile. How can I prevent this for next season?
I lost two trees years ago, because I didn't use triazicide. I know many in this forum are going back to Imidan, and if I could find it I too would use it. But I have very good results with Triaz. My next spray goes on this weekend. Borers are the worst. They are very difficult to kill and killed two three year old trees of mine. Ugh hate them to this day!
You need to start spraying early, around bloom time. They aren't that hard to kill around here.
Here is a link that might be useful: peach twig borer management
I allowed them to gain a foothold in my greenhouse one year. The next spring I knocked them out with a few sprays. Think I used dormant oil and BT but may have included an insecticide. Now I have learned how to keep them out and haven't had further problems.
Outdoors I'd have to spray every year.
Does cutting off the affected branch tips right away get rid of the larvae? I found a few flagged tips that I must have overlooked when I sprayed 2 weeks ago and cut several open, found no larvae there. How long do the critters stay in the shoots before moving on? (I actually suspect mine were OFM, not peach twig borer)

You'd be guilty. This doesn't
You'd be guilty. This doesn't contradict what I've said in the least bit.
Your pretenses are flawed for the argument you're trying to present. A machine in your example is actually the weapon. It would be the equivalent of wielding a drone. You've merely restated my position.

Dwarf blueberries
Hi, I have not been on here for a couple years but am starting my very modest container garden again. My son is 5 now and needs to learn to grow something!
Anyway, I have an ittybitty 6 inch sunshine blue blueberry and a top hat that I want to put in containers. I plan to use the gritty mix. I have Miracid and gypsum and vinegar. I think I need epsom salt too, right?
So, how big of a pot do I start with? The sunshine blue has little berries on it, do I snip them off? Is it okay to repot them now? Any other suggestions?
I appreciate all information and I love reading this forum. Glad I am playing with dirt again.
Hello mamasas,
They can go into about a gallon size container now and move to bigger ones in a couple years.Yes to both questions about replanting now,keep the soil moist,not too wet though and remove the fruit.
Since one is a Southern Highbush and the other is Northern,they will fruit in coming years,but will produce better if they each had a different variety to be with them. Brady

A Quick Look at a Very Good Year for Square Books – Part 1Posted January 3rd, 2014
2013 was a banner year for Square Books, due largely to the many books by writers connected to Oxford. Our top ten bestselling authors all signed books for us, only three of whom are not connected to Oxford – Pat Conroy and The Death of Santini (10), George Saunders' Tenth of December (7), and David Sedaris' Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls (8) – although all three of those writers have appeared here in past years, too.
Cookbooks and other lifestyle categories were hot: perennial seller Square Table (11); Are You Ready? (13) from Ole Miss Department of Nutrition & Hospitality Management; Treme: the Cookbook (64); An Italian Palate, by Robert St. John and Wyatt Waters (14); Garden & Gun's Southerner's Handbook (12); Southern Living's Tailgating Handbook (18); and at #2, John Currence hit a home run in his first at bat in a big, bad way with Pickles, Pigs & Whiskey.
Other Oxford and Mississippi writers dominated our list, some with more than one book: Ace Atkins (42, 90); William Faulkner, of course, Selected Short Stories (31, + 3 other titles); the King twins (52 + 71); John Grisham, with Sycamore Row at #3 (+ 5 and 99); Julie Cantrell (66 + 95); Jesmyn Ward (74 + 83); Curtis Wilkie (27); Donna Tartt (24); Michael Henry (77); Ann Fisher Wirth (98); Sam Haskell (9); William Winter's biography (45); Michael Farris Smith's debut, Rivers (63); Steve Yarbrough (64); Neil White (34); and Bill Ferris (40). Tom Franklin's Crooked Letter Crooked Letter (33) was bested by his collaborative novel with Beth Ann Fennelly, The Tilted World (5).

Square Books Helps Raise over $1,000 for Oxford Lafayette Humane SocietyPosted December 27th, 2013
Bruce Cameron, author of the bestselling books, A Dog's Journey and A Dog's Purpose, teamed up with Square Books this year when his new book, The Dogs of Christmas, was published. The author and the bookstore agreed to dedicate $2 each for every copy sold -- a total of $4 for every book, 25% of the $15.99 hardcover gift book. With animal lovers in Oxford having now purchased 263 copies since Bruce Cameron's October 15th appearance on Thacker Mountain radio at Off Square Books, that makes $1,052 total that will go to OLCHS. Square Books still has a few signed copies in stock.

Good Books Make Great GiftsPosted November 22nd, 2013
Late November Events at Square BooksPosted November 19th, 2013
Square Books prepares to close out a record year of author events as we approach Thanksgiving and the holidays. Mississippian Snowden Wright is here Wednesday, November 20, with Play Pretty Blues (Engine Books, 14.95); Jayne Anne Phillips returns to Square Books on Thacker Mountain Thursday, November 21 to read from her brilliant new novel, Quiet Dell (Scribner, 28.00); and on Friday, November 22, Wright Thompson (who has just appeared in Best American Sports Stories 2013 for an unprecedented eighth consecutive years) will interview Nicholas Dawidoff, sportswriter nonpareil, with his just-released Collision Low Crossers (Little Brown, 28.00), an inside look at the NFL that readers already are comparing to Paper Lion, and saying that it is the best book ever written on professional football.
We will finish November celebrating Small Business Saturday and featuring four guest authors -- who will be booksellers! Sarah Frances Hardy at Jr, and Beth Ann Fennelly, Deborah Johnson, and Ace Atkins will be helping us help you -- and they might sign a book or two of their own. While we always tell publishers we do not do events in December, we will break our rule for Ann Patchett, Joshilyn Jackson, Melissa Townsend, Ken Wooten, and -- how could we resist -- The Grinch. More on that in a later post. -- R.H.

Stanford University is one of the worlds leading research and teaching institutions. It is located in Palo Alto, California, approximately 20 miles (32 km) northwest of San Jose and 37 miles (60 km) southeast of San Francisco.
Three major airports serve the San Francisco Bay Area, including San Francisco International (SFO), San Jose Mineta International (SJC), and Oakland International (OAK). We suggest comparing fares to all three airports, as there can be significant differences, even for the same airline.
Choosing Airports Stanford is roughly equidistant from the San Francisco and San Jose airports. Although San Francisco is the largest of the three area airports and offers the most airlines and flights, some visitors find that San Jose's smaller size makes it a somewhat more convenient alternative, especially for domestic flights.
Learning More About the Airport Options Helpful information about each airport, including all transportation options, is available at the SFGate.com Web site. Public transportation alternatives are listed on the Stanford Parking and Transportation Services Airport Transportation Web site.

I started painting her for therapeutic reasons and it feels good to be done. I consumed a huge quantity of chocolate during. No regrets.
I started painting her for therapeutic reasons and it feels good to be done. I consumed a huge quantity of chocolate during. No regrets.
I have finally started looking through my photographs from my trip to Armenia this summer. It's been nice. I put on music and zone out for a few hours, clicking away, reliving the moments of this trip in my head. I'm glad I went.
We visited a resort town called Tsaghkadzor (means Valley of Flowers) which is located in Kotayk. During the winter, there is snow everywhere and people come by to visit the ski resort. During the summer, there is no snow, obviously, but the ski lifts still operate. The ride up was peaceful for the most part – occasional screams from my little cousin, who is afraid of heights, added some excitement. We wandered around up top and I was delighted that there were adorable horses hanging out.
It was a fun day. Lots of warmth and laughter. I miss my relatives very much. It's always nice to visit beautiful places but it's even better when you have wonderful company with you as well.
To say that the past couple of weeks have been difficult would be an understatement. My mom's illness took an extreme turn for the worse and we've had to process the situation and accept very difficult decisions in a short time which has put a lot of stress on us. As a family, we are all a bit on the emotional and sensitive side at the moment. So much happened in a blink of an eye. Now that she is back from the hospital and the situation has settled a bit, I'm glad to say that I'm doing better than I expected. This week I've started to feel energized and positive. I want to run forward…do stuff…move on. Though our situation isn't ideal, I'm happy and grateful. I'm grateful for my loving family and for the amazing friends that I'm lucky to have.
The day my mom was taken to the emergency room, I stayed at my friend's place. I stayed there several times afterward as well and it became a sanctuary for me (ughhhh sounds so dramatic) – a place where I felt okay when everything else in my life was falling apart. I felt isolated and lonely at home and I couldn't fall asleep in my room because the silence was so loud…but here I felt at ease. This painting is a snapshot of warmth, coziness, and friendship.
I found this photo last night when I had given up (given up temporarily!) trying to fix the internet. It's a photograph of my parents from the early 80s. Today is my birthday and I thought it was appropriate.
At Khor Virap – Lusarat, Armenia
I came back from Armenia a month ago and it has taken me this long to make a post. I wanted to write as soon as I got back but to be honest, my experience there was so overwhelming that I didn't know where to start and so today I decided I should just write something. I need time to process my trip. I took so many photographs and when I sit down to sort through them I get overwhelmed again, so if it's alright with you, I'm gonna take some time and let them sit for a bit until I'm ready.
Armenia was wonderful. It had been 12 years since I'd been there last. Saying that the place had changed would be a huge understatement. I had heard how much Yerevan (the capital) had changed from friends and family that had traveled there these past couple of years but I didn't expect to be so pleasantly surprised. It's a beautiful city with so much happening! People are always out and about and I'm a bit jealous that I'm not there right now.
What I appreciated the most was that I got a chance to disconnect from my worries for a bit. I was surrounded by wonderful people and friends, ate a lot of good food, and was just constantly in awe of how beautiful Armenia is. Lots of love all around <3
I'll be back with more photos <3
Traveling to Armenia in the afternoon. I am currently sitting alone watching youtube videos and drinking tea because I can't fall asleep. Yuuuup.
I hope you're all well <3 I'll write again soon.
It's been a while! I've been keeping busy…working, working on personal projects, hanging out with people, running around everywhere. Today I finally got a chance to take a break and swim. I am now two shades darker than I was yesterday.

If Education is Against Your Beliefs
Religion and the MOOCs
Scot McKnight blogged recently about "the MOOC delusion." I think it is fair to say that anyone who thought that MOOCs would be the future of higher education had not thought about the matter with an adequate historical perspective. It has long been the case that academics have, in some form or other, given our perspectives [Read More...]
Creationism and Religious Freedom
Today my class on "Religion and Freedom of Expression" met for the first time.

Viva La Library with Arabic Subtitles!
So, the information literacy song I made, "Viva La Library," has been subtitled with Arabic subtitles by the Media & Information Literacy Programme in Qatar. My spoken Arabic is minimal and my reading ability weaker still. And so thoughts on the translation would be appreciated from readers who are proficient in Arabic! Below is the original without the subtitles, [Read More...]

Bryan Bibb on Religious Studies, the Bible, and Liberal Education
Bryan Bibb has uploaded a talk he gave with the title "Why Are You Here? Religious Studies, The Bible, and Liberal Education" to Academia.edu.

Online and Hybrid Teaching Resources
Several items of interest have come my way today. The Chronicle of Higher Education had an article about flipping the classroom in an introductory course about ancient Rome. And the supplement to volume 16 of Teaching Theology and Religion is currently accessible for free online, with many book reviews focused on technology, pedagogy, and the offering [Read More...]
Training Jesus
The Gospel of Luke depicts a Jesus who learned. Many fundamentalists view Jesus as someone who always knew everything, being a divine person unhindered by human frailties (even if in theory they claim he was fully human as well as fully divine). Yet this Jesus who is supposedly infallible is kept on a very short [Read More...]
Professing Themselves to be Wise
Why is it that those who have never studied a topic, and yet are confident they know everything they need to and have no need to learn anything, seem to be the most likely to quote Paul's words in Romans 1:22, "Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools," and do so thinking it applies [Read More...]
Why Study Humanities?
This is the answer given by John Horgan in Scientific American to science and engineering students skeptical of their relevance to them: We live in a world increasingly dominated by science.

Well hello, strangers! It's been awhile since I posted. I was going through my nail polish collection the other day, trying to find something Christmas-y to wear, when I realized that I have a lot of colors that look very similar in the bottles. Over the next few weeks, I want to do some color comparisons for all of you. None of these polishes are new colors, and some of them may have already been compared on other blogs. Hopefully you will find some of mine useful.
Today we are going to compare some very dark blue polishes. My selections for this comparison are After School Boy Blazer by Essie, Lola by Julep, Incognito in Sausalito by OPI, and Laughie Taffy by Sally Hansen.
Looking at these polishes in the bottle, they all look almost identical, except for the Sally Hansen color, which tends to be a tiny bit purple-ish...not much, but just a hint. Let's see how they look on the nails. I would have used my own, but that would have been difficult with a super active 3-year-old, so I used these handy dandy nail wheels.
I did my best to capture these on camera as true-to-life color that I could. After one coat, notice that the Essie and Julep colors are almost identical. The finish is the only difference considering the Julep polish is part of their Satin Finish collection. The OPI color has the very slightest of teal undertones and the Sally Hansen colors is a bit lighter and is, of course, textured. The first 3 polishes could almost be one-coaters. There is the slightest bit of streaking from the Essie and OPI colors, but it's barely noticeable.
After two coats, the first 3 polishes are almost identical. They are super dark and the only way I can tell they are blue, is in natural sunlight. The Sally Hansen color is a lot darker after two coats, but still not as dark as the others.
Overall, I love all of these. The formulas were great on all 4. Even the textured polish went on very smoothly. As seen in the photo, the Essie and the OPI colors are glossy finishes, while the Julep has a really nice Satin Finish and the Sally Hansen has a fine textured feel to it.
I hope that you have enjoyed this type of blog post from me. I actually have a lot of them planned from my own polish collection.
If you are interested in learning more about Julep and how you can earn a FREE box of your own, you may visit THIS POST or the last Julep review that I did.
I hope you are all having a wonderful 2015 so far!!

October 30-Day Green Smoothie Challenge: Day 1
Today is the beginning of another 30-Day Green Smoothie Challenge from Simple Green Smoothies. If you've never tried one of these, then you are missing out! I first discovered green smoothies on Pinterest, and my sister-in-law first introduced me to the challenge from Simple Green Smoothies. I did most of the July challenge and loved discovering great new green smoothie recipes through it. I am a picky eater. I admit that I don't eat as many veggies as I should. A few of my children are picky eaters as well, but they LOVE the smoothies. These drinks are such a great way to get a few good servings of fruits and veggies that normally you may not eat. I always have friends ask how they taste. Well they're great! The fruit masks the veggie taste so they really are sweet and delicious. If you think you'd like to be a part of the challenge, just click this link to sign up. Each week they send out emails with 5 new recipes and a shopping list of items to buy for that week. Also, make sure you check out the Simple Green Smoothies Facebook page for lots of tips and updates. Want to know what I drank today? Pictured below is "Cherry on Top" packed with spinach, water, banana, blueberries, and cherries. Yummy!!

This is a great book. It (literally) made me cry. You don't have to be religious to enjoy this book - actually it's probably better if you aren't.
Gets a little bit preachy at the end but you're well prepared for it...
The only negative is that the author narrates the book, but he just isn't that great. A better narrator would have made this a 5 star easy. But after a while you get lost in the story and the narrator dissapears.
Highly reccomended.

Top of the top
We all have our favorites and they are not always winners in every way. I was thinking that if I had to suggest one red, one pink, one white, one yellow, one blend, and one wildcard to someone starting a small rose bed and wanted a roses that were fragrant and freely blooming and not too much trouble to grow - right now I would say for my area it would be
R- Velvet Fragrance ( I am trusting Kim on this one, but I have it on order)
P- Memorial Day
Y- Elina
B- Scentimental
W- Souvenir de la Malmaison
SdlM is a sure winner in my garden. As for the others . .
Memorial Day -- this one's highly touted as being impervious to heat, but it's very stingy of bloom and otherwise unimpressive in my southern garden. Ho-hum.
Elina -- a towering, reasonably healthy bloom factory for me. Its blossoms are plentiful and often impressive. But yellow? I don't think so . . . They're kind of an off-white for me. Always. The thrips adore me for refusing to get rid of this one.
PJP2 -- I SP'd my two J&P New Generation PJPs. The few blooms they produced were lovely and highly fragrant, but the plants just weren't productive enough to pay the rent on the real estate they occupied. I've just received a PJP grafted on Huey for 2013 planting. At last! I have high hopes, but we'll see . . .
Julia Child -- bullet proof in my garden. What's not to like (except the boredom with it that sets in at about season three)?
I'm afraid all my selections are pretty large roses, so they might not fit in a small rose bed.
Red--Ascot (not a true red)
Pink--Frederic Mistral or Brother Cadfael (both are very big)
Yellow--Julia Child (no boredom for me here)
White--Don't grow any whites; I find these to be boring, however.
Blend--Evelyn (not much of a blend, I guess).
Wild Card--Dainty Bess.
I like everybody's choices. I confess that I like very pale yellows. Maybe some people wouldn't consider Elina to be yellow. I do like Julia and would be confident about suggesting her as a richer yellow. I was curious about what everyone would choose because people always ask me " what's a good....( X colored rose )" I have my favorites but many have flaws that I overlook and I am willing to grow some fussy ones because of color, shape or fragrance. Even though I love PJPII, my favorite white rose is Honor and I have heard all sorts of complaints about it. I wouldn't suggest it as a starting out rose. Sister says why didn't I include orange or peach?
I like reading all the wildcard choices
R- Firefighter
P- Frederic Mistral
Y- Floriferous- Michaelangelo, for Fragrance Valencia
W- Pope John Paull II (I am ordering my 3rd, I also lost 2 new Generation own roots, this one will be grafted!)
B- Morden Sunrise
Wild Card-
scepter'd Isle own root-- she blooms her head off and has such cute blooms.
This is hard--I find I like all my roses and don't want omit any of them.
But I'll force myself. I'm focusing more on easy-to-grow and less on fragrance--though there are some good smellers on the list also.
R--Eutin (floribunda)
P-Mystic Beauty (identical or nearly to Souvenir de la Malmaison)--but I really wanted to put Lady of Guadalupe in this slot also.
Y-Molineux (since others are calling this yellow; to me it is a yellow/apricot blend--but I dont' really have a good alternate choice for yellow)
Wh--Elina--it is white with a pale yellow center to me--a blend in other words. If you are going to be a purist, then substitute Memoire, but Elina is too good to be left off any list.
Bl- Red Intuition. I adore this one--dark red on medium red--but I have lots of roses that qualify as blends--including Molineux and Elina.
Wild--Lady of Shalott--but she could also be a golden/apricot blend.
Well, I do seem to be fairly busting out of my seams with these categories, don't I !
R: Mirandy
P: Sydonie
Y: Sunsprite
W: Mme Legras de St.Germain
B: Leda
Wildcard: R. glauca (I could not be without this rose and while the blooms are pink and I could have put it there, it is the blue of the leaves and the abundance of hips, the graceful arching of the canes that makes the whole package delightful.)
oooh, I'll play
red - there is only one red for me....R.moyesii (any of its cultivars, particularly geranium, but I love the basic sp.)
yellow - hugonis (but I could pick any of the early yellows as I love them all)
white - my main weakness (boring, Diane!?) - choosing another species, R.helenae
pink - Madame Gregoire Staechelin - my first and still one of my best and most beloved roses - the foliage, at this moment, is proving to be one of the delights of my still gloomy garden.
blend - Don't really have much of a choice (really not keen on stripes) so will go with Hebe's Lip, a wild-looking white, with crimson tips.
wildcard - Eyes for You, a delicious hulthemia which has surpassed my earlier Harkness versions)
Where are the mauves/blues/purples? - gotta pick Eyes for You in this category although Purple Skyliner runs close.
This was quite hard choosing since nothing is actually blooming right now and choices are always subjective, depending on what is looking best at any moment.
I have so many newbies I'd love to do this again next year, as I think some will change, but for now:
R- Chrysler Imperial - perhaps not easy in wet climates, but to-die for in mine (guessing new Firefighter may surpass)
P- Pink Peace - LOVE the fragrance (fruit loops) and constant rebloom. Many new Austins, and SdLM, and Memorial Day that will compete this year.
Y- Sunsprite (I don't have many yellows), Julie Child will contend this year
P- Heirloom (how could you forget purple!) (can't wait for Della Reese to start to bloom)
L- Angel Face (or lavendar) (Think Neptune will take over this spot)
O- Fragrant Cloud (and orange!)
B- Double Delight (perfection makes up for not so strong rebloom)
W- Young Lycidas, Stainless Steel, Bella Roma (seriously, one?!)
(I didn't follow directions too well)
I can't wait for my Bolero to get going. Last year was a hint of good things to come. Lola-lemon I think you are right about what a good rose F. Mistral is for a beginner. Maybe I should have chosen that over Memorial Day.
I bought a Firefighter the other day after thinking that this rose takes time to get going and the sooner I plant one, the better... otherwise I get to hear all about it and then I decide I want one and then wait three years for it to make the magic.
Wouldn't you like to be the lucky newbie with any of these great lists of roses? Just add in your favorite colors I left out.
I also have a lot of newbies, and noid roses- While a couple of the unidentified roses are my favorites- I will stick to named varieties.
R- Ld. Braithwhite
P-Scept'rd Isle-even as a newbie bloomed it's head off
y-Julia Child
L- angel face
