Field Roebuck, author of the book Foolproof Guide to Growing Roses. He posts periodically and his GW hame is "Field". He also has a web page, try google.

Thank you so much, Diane. I just could not remember that name, and it had bothered me.

Hey, Sammy. How've you been?

I'm retired and pretty much just a lurker nowadays. But I still grow roses sans pesticides.

Go look for my book. The original (still available in some places) was indeed titled "Foolproof Guide to Roses," but there is now a new, enlarged version out, and the publisher changed the title to "Complete Roses -- a Foolproof Grower's Guide."
