I bought  Rosie about four years ago.  That first year I had 4 roses.  The next year it died.  No new growth and old growth never greened up by the 2nd fall.  it looked dead so I removed it from my garden.  By removed I mean I pulled it up from the garden which included the stem, cane, root ball and roots.  I threw it in the trash.  It wsa the only rose it that garden. Imagine my suprise when last year I saw a rose stem growing in that garden!  I did not produce any roses last year.  It's growing more this year but the stem is still quite small. The question is how can I get the stem to become thicker and will it ever produce roses and will they be just like the old plant?
