Hi, I'm in Hueytown (near Bessemer) about 40 miles north on I-20/I-59. If you will wait until first frost I will save you some cuttings from 3 kinds of Confederate rose. I have the white double which changes to pink later in the day, I have the double which blooms pink and I have the single hot pink varieties. You can out them up, keep them moist, put them under a light in a warm room over the winter and they will be rooted and ready to plant next spring. BTW, we are organizing a Plant Swap at Oak Mtn State Park on Sept 22. Why don't you come join us? We would love to meet you. - Terry
