          It's not the same when I'm talking to my offspring in far away lands @ARMANDII, I like to do that face to face. :) My grand-daughter met her aunt, my younger daughter, for the first time via Skype......

              Could you grow some from cuttings and 'standardise' them yourself Woo, or would they take too long?

                  Joolz this is my Rose from last year(Bush):smile:

                  If it is a sucker and I am sure it is you really should pull it off ,if you cut it off it will grow again my friend;) to shape it you should do it when you prune anytime now just imagine that you want a cup shape in your minds eye:smile:
