| 2009-11-13 | Susy | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | No | Thanks for your prompt response. This is the first year I extensively used the BAYER systemic. Tried (and it worked) to keep the Jap. beetles from devouring my plants. But I'd rather have the blooms. I'll just have to wage war with the beetles in another way. Perfect answer. Thanks again. |

| 2009-09-23 | Elizabeth | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank's for the answer to my question, is my rose a climber or a bush. The information was very helpful as I am always looking at my plant and didn't know how they grow. I will look for how the buds are on the canes and how tall the canes get. Thank you, Elizabeth. |
| 2009-09-22 | Vaishnavy Bhaskaruni | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | thanks for your input, lynnette. |
| 2009-09-15 | Mona | 10 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Thank you so much Lynnette! I have been trying to find someone locally to get some advice, but could find no one. You are a life saver. I will definately take the cuttings this fall and see if I can get them to take. If I can I may just leave the bush rather than risk the move. |

| 2009-09-11 | Brenda | 8 | 10 | 10 | 10 | Yes | Since I do not know anything about Ms. Payne's experience, it would be hard to rate a 10 on knowledgeability. She gave good suggestions and I felt her knowledg was more extensive than mine. Thank you, Ms. Payne. |
