Hello from germany

Hello to everyone on Rose Talk Australia.
I enjoyed browsing this forum so I might as well join you

My favourite roses are those of old fashioned looks, and specially the nicely scented ones. Since 2004 I have been growing roses from seed. I did some hybridizing, however most seedlings are op.

We have winter here and it has been very cold. Fortunately we had also a lot of snow; so no rose activities just now.
Wait and see how the roses survived. Some of my seedlings are in pots and if they survive they must be truly hardy

Have a nice Sunday Ulrike

Welcome Greenlife, your comment re freezing conditions turned my thoughts to a rose I have called 'Arctic Flame' bred by Brownell family who are famous for breeding hardy roses. I am going to check how it grows in heat hoping it is hardy at both ends of the temperature scale. Might just be a snow rose.

Ulrike, I just noticed that you are visiting the Bodensee. Hope your seedlings will not be chilled meanwhile

cheers
Bernhard

Bernhard, could you put those 2 words into Oz lingo for me please, regards David
P.S. your turn to help.

David,
you did not write which words, I assume it's the 'Bodensee'. That must be a funny word in your ears, it' not a puddle, it's the German meaning for the Lake Constance

the oz lingo for that

Bernhard, the other one is "Ulrike". Bodensee was the other and thanks for the translation of it.

Ulrike is his name (Welcome BTW )

not "his" but "her"

Again thank you Bernhard for that help. Now we have that sorted. It is great to have you here Ulrike and do not forget to post when you have time. If it is not rude how do I/we pronounce your name, any way welcome . Regards David.

Welcome Greenlife. At this rate we'll have to call it Rose Talk Australia/Germany

G'day Ulrike!

I look forward to reading more about you & your roses.

Hello everyone, Iwill try to show a picture of my seedlings of 2010. They are indoor under fluorecent lighting

hope this works, Ulrike

Nope.. sorry... I think we would need to be logged in to be able to see it. We have an image hosting system here if you would like to use it or you can email the images to me at s.a.voorwinde@bigpond.com and I'll post them for you

Hi Simon
did send two Pictures to you

Just checked the link I gave above: I logged out of Australian Rosetalk and of the other forum as well. For me the link worked. I used the function "open in new window" and the picture came up.

Cheers Ulrike

I have just looked at the link Ulrike gave in her post and it worked OK for me.
Ulrike could you supply the crosses of your roses or the names that they come from. Are the fluorescent lights normal or grow lights. The seedlings look very healthy. I hope they all survive for you and then we will see some wonderful flowers.
