Above pictures of the coldframe in March. You can see our coldframe pictured above during other months of the year by clicking on the link below (in winter plants are stored in boxes on each side but as it warms up we will open the boxes and start taking the roses out). The front porch where I often sit in summer sipping a coffee I bought next door (you can see the weather proof box that has a handout inside). We rent the apartments to tenants that like being surrounded by the nursery.

marchaccesssmall.jpg, marchreddoorsmall.jpg
Above you can see our access to the field, If its blocked with snow then we probably have limited access to many of our larger plants. The Plant sale begins on May 15 and we first send mail-order the last week of May (mostly lilacs and liners). I plan to buy some liners of Aronia (Chokeberry) this spring that I may sell for $5 each three inch liner (later I will repot them into 1 gallons for sale at $10 or $15). Through the red door is our break room, opening to the left of it is where we have our mist propagation bench and to the right in the barn is the work shop and storage.
marchpotinpotsmall.jpg
In winter plants we take cuttings from are stored here with their roots surrounded by mulch.
marchcoldbox45small.jpg, marchcoldbox48small.jpg
Opened the cold boxes and found nothing badly damaged, some poison baits gone. Pulled out a few of the plastic bags with cuttings inside and they look good so far (one bag had been chewed but the plant inside was OK). The white paper coffee cups you might see in the pictures have poison baits inside. When we open the boxes permanently we will pick up all the cups, stack them and store them in the barn until next fall. Click the picture for a larger image.
marchcoldbox51small.jpg, marchispahansmall.jpg
Last years cuttings were all inserted in plastic bags before being overwintered in the coldbox. Even though its not warm enough yet we took several out to see how they are doing and 100% of those we examined had rooted. Soon, on a warm day, I will take pictures, then later restore them to their bags and the box probably til next month. On the right, this picture of Ispahan cuttings that I have pealed down the bag to see how its doing (we look for active growth).
marchlabellesultanesmall.jpg
On the left, this picture of La Belle Sultane cuttings that I have pealed down the bag to see how its doing (we look for active growth). At least if the stems are green its an indication the cutting is still viable (we will just have to wait for a while to see if it will come out of dormancy). I cant get anymore out as of the 14th because I need help reaching across without taking to many out of the box (I expect lots of freezing temperatures this next week).
marchstoragesmall.jpg, marchin45small.jpg
This storage area is being cleaned out so we can install a new mist propagating bench to use in June, July and August. Dave emailed me asking about 'Harisons Yellow' (march picture below) and I added a picture of the stool layered rose last fall at www.floweringshrubfarm.com/rose30.htm I may go up in the Heldebergs and look for a Harisons Yellow beside the road that I can get a sucker from (I would offer the owners a few dollars for each sucker I collected). Above right shows a line of espalier trained fruit trees and layered roses in 45 gallon pots.
marchcherryespalier410small.jpg, marchharisonsyellowin45small.jpg
People ask me via phone or email about a particular variety, I make a note of it in the newsletter beneath the pictures. Whenever I take more pictures I look for varieties that have been mentioned and if I find them take a picture (later I add a comment beneath telling how many people I have to email back and ask if they still want it). If you see the picture you might email me back and ask about it.
bigcabbagerosesmall.jpg, bigtourdemalakoffsmall.jpg
These "big" roses, no matter what size, are my main source of cuttings. I will take pictures of them frequently to over-write with.
bigdartsdashsmall.jpg
marchcelestealbain45small.jpg, marchagnesin45small.jpg
Alba Rose 'Celeste' in a 45 gallon pot that we use for propagation from cuttings. Agnes Hybrid rugosa rose in a 45 gallon pot that we use to propagate cuttings from and to layer (note the little rootlets indicating that it started producing roots into the snow so it should also have produced some further down where it was intended to).
marchkazanlikin45small.jpg, marchpinxterbloomsmall.jpg
This Kazanlik in a 45 gallon pot has obviously been over pruned. But it should provide at least 4 cuttings this year. The company that provided us with pinxterbloom azalea seedlings every year seems to have gone out of business so I will have to keep those I have and grow some from seed and others from cuttings.
marchfantinlatoursmall.jpg, marchfeliciteparmentierin45small.jpg
We will have to take the raised bed for 'Fantin Latour' apart to remove these maple trees that have grown up through it. Our source of 'Felicite Parmentier cuttings.
marchledain45small.jpg, marchmongein45small.jpg
Leda has a large multiflora growing next to it and so we will probably transplant it sometime. This Monge that we took cuttings from last year will have more taken this year while we neaten it up a bit.
marchlilacsinfieldsmall.jpg
Note the yellow labels marking those that flowered (some of these get cut back while others are divided). We pot them into 3 gallon pots and place them in the field under drip line. Once they flower I label it with an individually numbered yellow label with the name printed on it using a paint pen. Those that have to few stems are cut back and once they start to grow vigorously may be repotted in a larger pot (probably a 7 gallon or 15 gallon). A few may be planted in 45 gallon pots and used to provide cuttings.
marchorchardsmall.jpg, marchdividinglilacssmall.jpg
I took this picture looking over the orchard at the Heldeberg Escarpment. Where we divide Lilacs, then pot the divisions in the basement then place the new 1 gallons alongside the foundation.
marchcutbacklilacssmall.jpg, marchcuttingbacklilacssmall.jpg
Lilacs that flowered last year but have 3 or fewer stems are cut back to around four inches, especially those that have not been requested mail order. If we get a thicket of upright stems some will be transplanted into larger pots while others may be divided next year.
marchlilacdividessmall.jpg, marchlilacdividingsmall.jpg
Lilacs are divided into 1 gallon pots and cut back to four inches. We use a sawzall to cut the root in half and sometimes into thirds or quarters. Those that come out of dormancy and grow vigorously may be sold mail order or get transplanted into a larger pot and returned to the field. Wouldn't you know that the one I take pictures of to demonstrate with would give us a hard time (frozen). We will continue next week and maybe I'll get additional pictures.
marchlilacdivisionssmall.jpg, marchgriffysmall.jpg
We are arranging the lilac divisions near the foundation with their pots pushed together. Griffy is an old Chow that we rescued (chows have a bad reputation, and when he came to us was afraid of walking through doors, was very furtive etc. today he has come out of his shell, rolls on the floor like a puppy but he still has problems with doors).
marchlibertyespalier985small.jpg, marchlibertyespalier987small.jpg
I espalier train a few trees every year in 45 gallon pots to be sold some future day when they start producing flowers and fruit. I carry a Kindle Fire with me wherever I go and use it to check my emails at least ten times a day. The on screen keyboard is hard for me to operate but I usually send a short reply followed by a longer reply from the computer when I get home.
I use these newsletters to notify potential customers when plants are ready or not because it simplifies my life immeasurably. I dont subtract people from this list unless they ask to be removed so quite a few may no longer be interested or may change what they are interested in if I email them but if its on this list I'll be checking it when adding to the newsletter.
Suzanne said on March 30, 2015 she wants 3 Monge Lilacs.
Tom said on March 29, 2015 he wants 'Autumn Damask' Rose cuttings. I replied that our propagation bench malfunctioned last year so we probably have lost the cuttings we took before September and I'm pretty sure that includes the autumn damask though I'm not sure (we are building a new mist propagation bench this year but most of our cuttings may end up being taken in September and October).
Caroline said on March 29, 2015 she wants to pick up Nadezhda, Monge, Adelaide Dunbar, Znamya Lenina and Congo Lilacs in 15 gallon pots. I think those that I have are in 3 gallon pots for $25 each but most of those in the list have not yet flowered and so they wont be for sale until they do.
Hollis said on March 29, 2015 she wants pinkster bush. I told her on the phone that the guy who sold me seedling plants every year has gone out of business and I have not found a replacement source yet or collected seed to germinate.
Kathy said on March 29, 2015 wants 2 New Dawns.
Linda said on March 29, 2015 wants to subscribe (alchymist).
Deb said on March 28, 2015 wants apothecarys rose
Carl said on March 23, 2015 wants 'Celestial' alba
Susan said on March 22, 2015 wants Roseraie de l'Hay
Vernon said on March 22, 2015 wants Alba Semi-plena and Rosa centifolia
Ralph said on March 21, 2015 wants Felicite de Parmentier
Tom said on March 21, 2015 wants 2 pinxterbloom (15 gallon)
Jacob said on March 21, 2015 that he wants Schneezwerg
Janice said on March 20, 2015 that she is interested in 'Rochester' Lilac and 'Seven Sisters', 'City of York', and Fantin Latour Roses.
Catherine said on March 17, 2015 that she would like 2 Great Maidens Blush at $15 each would be $30 + $2 handling + $18 shipping (dont send any money until I ask for it). Go to the bottom of this page and you can see a picture that shows 2 - one gallon potted roses in a flat rate priority mail box. If I root cuttings we pot them in one gallon pots, if they flower and are identified we may sell them, so I never know what I will be selling until they flower (or dont) in June.
Joseph said on March 14, 2015 that he would like 30 gallons of each of the following; Rosa centifolia (Cabbage Rose), Rosa damascena Trigintipetala Kazanlik, and Ispahan Damask Rose. He asked how we ship, how much they cost, which ones have 35 petals, and how old the plants are. I explained that those three are possibly the highest demand we have and I explained we dont sell plants until they have flowered verifying the variety. I will try to address all those points here and in subsequent newsletters mostly with pictures and links. Note each link below is a web page for each of those varieties alone and I try to add all the pictures of each variety to its own page alone though I no doubt have failed occasionally.
www.floweringshrubfarm.com/crop191.htm Rosa centifolia (Cabbage Rose),
www.floweringshrubfarm.com/crop106.htm Rosa damascena Trigintipetala (kazanlik),
www.floweringshrubfarm.com/crop031.htm Ispahan Damask Rose
Tara said 3/13/15, she is going to need more Damask and Rugosa plants.
Floyd asked 3/12/2015 about Roseraie de l'Hay
Stephanie was asking 3/10/15 about Lilacs. Lucy Baltet, Primrose, Basia, Ville de Limoges, Znamya Lenina, Dr Brethour Patterson, Paul Deschanel, Krasavitsa moskvy, Deuil Demile Galle, Gismonda, Belle de Nancy, Jacques Callot, Siebold, President John Adams, John Dunbar, Mme Casimir Perier, Mme Lemoine, Taras Bulba, Martha Kounze, Komsomolka, Romance, Emile Lemoine, Ainola, Atheline Wilbur, Colbert, Duc de Massa, Nadezhda, Ostrander, Drushba, Victor Lemoine, Leon Gambetta, President Poincaire, Frederick Douglass, HasannaBoule Azuree, Sarah Sands, Ludwig Spaeth, De Mirabel, (those that I don't have right now, we look for so we can grow it until it flowers, check its identity, then possibly take cuttings for those who want them). If we currently propagate them there should be a blue link or at least it should be highlighted in blue (though we wont sell them until they flower that we will show a picture of in the newsletter so you can determine if its the one you want).
Deborah was asking 3/10/15 about Great Maidens blush. If I get an opportunity I will show a picture of the cuttings here that I hope rooted.
Janet asked me 3/11/15 about Leda Painted Damask
Wendy asked me 3/10/15 what are the youngest cuttings of Rugosa I sell (also said she had problem germinating rugosa seed). All of our roses are propagated in one gallon pots then divided into one gallon pots (answer to question). The following picture links should show you pictures of cuttings from hybrid rugosa roses that have rooted (we stick 4 cuttings in each pot). If you look closely youmight be able to tell how many cuttings rooted in each pot. We will probably divide them each into their own 1 gallon pot sometime this summer, cutting them back in July.
Lois asked about roses that she had asked about 4/22/14 Alba Semi-plena, Rosa rugosa alba and Great Maidens Blush. Semi-Plena, AGNES Hybrid Rugosa Rose Alba' Rugosa Rose Great Maidens Blush ALBERTINE ALCHEMIST or ALCHYMIST 'DORTMUND' 'FRUHLINGSMORGAN'. If we root cuttings from any of these varieties I will email her along with everyone else giving priority, once they reply, to those who signed up first. But first I will publish pictures here in the newsletter so if I dont email you, you should send me a reminder as Lois has here.

We will stick 4 cuttings from a numbered 'Aucubaefolia' in a 1 gallon pot and try to root them, then sell them to James at $5 per rooted cutting undevided (2 in a pot would be $10, 3 in a pot $15, etc.). Actually I'll probably do as many pots of this as I have cuttings to stick 4 to a pot and later I can sell them as is or I can devide them, cut them back and sell them as $10 for a 1 year old and $15 for a 2 year old.

We only ship 1 gallon (sold out of 2 gallon right now) in flat rate priority mail boxes (check picture and cost at bottom of this page) so I would suggest you reduce this order to 2 plants.
4/26/14 Carene
I dont know if I'll have any or not. If the roses bloom and you are on this list for one of those that bloom in a one gallon pot I will call you back on the phone giving priority to those nearest the bottom of this list.

About the ALL-PICTURE-NEWSLETTER by andyvancleve
Potential customers subscribe to my free subscriber only newsletter. Around the 10th of each month I send a link to all my subscribers (click on the link and it will take you to an available web page where I am placing the newsletter). Every time I interact with the plants or we work in the nursery I take pictures that I add to the newsletter with comments between (clicking on the small picture opens an image large enough to save as wallpaper). If you see something that interests you ask me about it in an email me .
Flowering Shrub Farm Monthly All Picture Newsletters; January February March April May 6 to 16 May 20 to 31 June 4 to 7 June 8 to 9 June 11 to 13 June 16 to 25 July August September October November December
When you see something you like come buy it in bloom or email me.

We can send 2 one gallon potted plants in this size for around $18.00 postage as of June 2014. A 1 year old in a 1 gallon is $10 and a 2 year old in a 1 gallon is $15 (but we usually dont send the 1 year old because it has not flowered yet). Occasionally we sell quarter gallons for $10 each or thereabouts because I can fit so many of them in this priority mail box (ask about it). Because we stick 4 cuttings in each one gallon pot then divide them once they have rooted these divisions from the one gallon are called quarter gallons. Dont send any money until I ask for it, Nothing is available right now though you might check the pictures of roses being identified link and ask me in an email if any of them are available.
Contact me if you have any questions.
