I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoy your blog and your appreciation of everything nature. I also REALLY, REALLY, like the idea behind "Have you seen...." - would you mind if I did some "Have you seen...." posts and linked back to you, giving you credit for the idea? PLUS, you're from Ohio - which makes you even more fantastic. :-D (Ohio is my home state - lived in Northeast Ohio until June of 2007).Misty DawnShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15815037247940459349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-12995144774353183342008-12-28T22:16:00.000-05:002008-12-28T22:16:00.000-05:00I've found, in trying to cut it, that multiflora a...I've found, in trying to cut it, that multiflora always gets its dig in. And yes, trying to get out of it just makes it work, the thorns are so strongly hooked--you struggle like a fish.<BR/><BR/>I took a romp through the woods today and got caught in it. I was wearing my favorite new stretchy action pants (some kind of synthetic blend) and those thorns went right through them. I snorted and thought, "I might as well be wearing pantyhose for all the good these stupid pants are doing me here!"Julie Zickefoosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06654698829603424649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-10960912550816667092008-12-27T17:20:00.000-05:002008-12-27T17:20:00.000-05:00Nina, I've tagged you to tell "six random things" ...Nina, I've tagged you to tell "six random things" about yourself.

It has a lovely scent to boot.<BR/><BR/>Google 'Victorian Memory'...I recently planted three that I got from my favorite rosarian "High Country Roses"...<BR/><BR/>I love to mix this rose in (always on it's own roots; no 'tea' roses for me!) with the native perennials and grasses and small trees I'm planting for the birds.Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09334121900896195207noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-22855161510010534802008-12-24T11:10:00.000-05:002008-12-24T11:10:00.000-05:00Beautifully written and illustrated, Nina.
