He roamed the world by sea and gathered MANY rhodos from everywhere, came back to N.S. and planted them. He hybridized many and produced his own varieties. We bought a few from him. It's just so cool to visit and roam through the woods and see these beautiful specimens growing....seriously a lot of them.fromsophiesviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16532257840856313054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-29235296302059695642012-11-15T21:31:50.014-07:002012-11-15T21:31:50.014-07:00I bet Sophie would scare them off! And they would...I bet Sophie would scare them off! And they wouldn't get by her because she is on guard against kitties! I've heard some horror stories around here about muleys eating wooden shingles on houses, but I think that's an urban myth. Who is the Rhodo Man of the South Shore? That sounds like something that could be a blog post.Fundy Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02132147630106183853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-24238018164806873442012-11-15T19:04:36.313-07:002012-11-15T19:04:36.313-07:00Oh you love muleys...would never have known...;-) ...Oh you love muleys...would never have known...;-) ;-) This is informative Louise....I will look at the white tailed deer differently now....I know we have lots around but in the passed 20 years on our property...nothing...next door I saw one once but it scooted off. They devour all vegetation and we've heard stories of Rhododendron bushes being totally denuded. The Rhodo Man of the South Shore lost so many one year, we went down to see the devastation... unbelievable.Sophie would scare them off most likely.<br />Ronfromsophiesviewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16532257840856313054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5349947899983990762.post-81957077218829626612012-11-15T11:17:54.400-07:002012-11-15T11:17:54.400-07:00Thanks Noushka!
