That is fine and totally valid for the individual. I found, at least with me and quite a few whom I have observed learning and growing with their roses that this type of growth eventually becomes less satisfying. When you have a garden full of them, it quickly becomes rather "dated" looking. As with anything, too much of one thing can easily become boring. Having the fuller bushes lends a more lush look. I have found them more pleasing because they appear healthier and happier than the spindly types. In a more severe climate, the spindly are far more easily damaged by the loss of a few of their leaves because they simply don't grow as many, and in my climate, they tend to be much more susceptible to foliage problems because of their inherant abilities to ward off infection. They do have a place and they are part of the learning process of where we've been and how we got where we are. Both totally necessary to see where we might go in the future. I've loved them all, but the fuller types are easier to maintain as they are more able to fend for themselves here. Kim
