Oh, maybe Ennis would have found this rose  named Fourth of July?

For Alma?

Or for Jack?

Jack would grow the beans, silly. Haven't you heard of Jack and the beanstalk, hehe?? Jack would grow the beans, and Ennis would eat 'em.

Agreed,Jack was not a big bean lover!!
Who would kill the giant then?I guess Ennis,he seemed to be the better shot of the two.

I'd guess Ennis would want to grow some simple, practical foods -- beans, peas, maybe a tomato plant or two.

Jack might get a little more adventurous, maybe try some canteloupes. But if they were living in Wyoming and either wanted to grow roses, they'd need to check out those wonderful Canadian roses -- like the Morden Fireglow, my all-time favorite rose:

Wow, thanks to you all... and thanks!

Thanks too for the fun !!


Do you think that jack would change his name to Beanstock ??

Bienvenue... more jokes too please.

And would Ennis hang the clothes outside ? His underwear?   Or Jack's?

Au revoir,
hugs!  Is that your Canadian rose? You grow that one?

That particular one isn't mine; but I did have a Morden Fireglow rose for several years. It's the only rose I've ever seen that actually looks as great as the pictures in the catalogues.

I agree, I think Ennis would be practical when it came to growing stuff. I can't see Jack gardening though - I get the impression somehow that he wouldn't have the patience for gardening. If they had a little ranch, I'd see Jack more dealing with the animals - there are a few scenes in BBM where we see him caring for the sheep, and I think he'd be good with animals.

Always.  :)

I know there's been discussion before about whether they would actually get on if they lived together 24/7, not just a few days here and there each year, but I think they would. I think their characters balanced each other well, and as we saw from their time up on the mountain, they could intuitively 'read' each other (probably Jack more so than Ennis, always knowing the right time to lighten the mood and draw Ennis out of himself), and worked well together as a team, and I think both those things would stand them in good stead for a long and happy relationship.

Thanks Marge!

Where did you get that lovely rose?

Is it still available?

Do you think that Jack or Ennis would have chickens if they would have lived together?

Au revoir,
hugs!
