Recieved an email yesterday from someone who was looking for a Softee rose. She must have run across a post from years ago listing some of the roses I had ordered.
It seems that Softee cannot be found on the market anymore. However, by doing a little research on HelpMeFind, I determined that Softee was now called "Jefferson" and could be found at several reputable online retailers. I emailed my findings from the searcher, wishing her luck.
This morning, I found in my email:
Success! I sent an e-mail to Angel Gardens to determine whether their
"Jefferson Rose" was indeed Softee - and it turns out that her mother
plant was indeed bought as Softee.
Thanks again for the information, and for your kind response to my
out-of-the-blue e-mail.
You are welcome searcher - and thank you for letting me know that the findings of my research were correct, but also that you appreciated my efforts (little as they were).
Enjoy your new rose!
That is so cool! It seems that each of us has an area or two in which we help others with our research. You accel at plants and animals and....Ronni does much research for the rest of us in the aging arena, and I do much research for your dad and other Red Crossers in the disaster services arena.
Well done!
