We once were on a tour of a farm and walked near the foundation of the abandoned original farmhouse. Crazy wild roses everywhere. I asked permission to take some clippings. There have been roses that were thought completely lost except for rose 'rescuers' who had been keeping clippings of found roses in their gardens and were able to bring them back for consumers.

It'll be a couple of years before I can start doing some serious gardening, so I'm keeping good information like yours in a file so I can be ready to go! Must remember to carry the nail scissors annd plastic bag in my purse .. . You’re an inspiration! I love the idea of giving new life to neglected, forgotten plants!
