While 'Chrysler Imperial' is still available as a bush, it appears that
commercial growers no longer provide this as a climber. Are there any
rose hobbyists out there who have this as a climber and who are willing
to root a cutting for me? (I think the patent expired long ago.)

Did you try Mendocino Heirloom Roses? There are listed as a distributor on
Help Me Find.

Their Web site is broken. When I go to view "Available Roses", I get
the message:
"Sorry, no roses could be found. There may be a problem with the rose
catalog database. Please send an email to and
report the problem."
Yes, I have sent the indicated E-mail.

When I phone, they don't answer.
