I wanted to thank everyone that answered my questions that I have posted in this thread. It seems I may have hijacked someones old topics. I found all of this information useful, including the websites referred to. I have also located a DFW area nursery,
Redenta's has them for $18.95 in a two gallon pot.
The Antique Rose Plantation a little farther away has them for $15.95 and an out of state mail order
the Uncommon Rose has them for $11.95. Obviously, shipping charges effect some of the final prices. I believe I am going to take a stroll over to Redentas to see their selection. I may even get a lil road trip going to the antique rose plantation if I am not happy with the selection at Redentas. But that is a 160 mile round trip for me. I would have to be pretty disappointed at Redenta's for that trip. I have heard many good things about Redenta's, so I doubt I will be disappointed. I have also found a good web site for
Propogating Roses from Cuttings. I hope this information on that web site might help others who are also looking to propogate roses from cuttings. I found this as well as the references in this thread quite useful. I am posting the results and answers I found while searching for an answer to my original questions. I am hopeful others who post questions on this forum, and then find answers via other means will do the same and post their findings with an update on their questions. I am new to this forum, but not new to forums in general. I searched extensively prior to asking questions and found a lot of good questions unanswered. I hope others will also answer their own questions if they find solutions outside of this forum. It ultimately will help all users of this AWESOME FORUM! Thanks to everyone for making this a great tool on my quest to starting my gardening adventures.
