Mark, they seem to dump every rose except their top sellers. This has
included plenty of AARS winners over the years. European rose breeders
like Meilland, Delbard, Kordes, and even Austin are far more loyal to
varieties that have lasting merit.

Evidently J&P's motive is to plug these latest, protected varieties that
maximise profit for J&P. I'm just surprised that they'd dump Pure
Poetry after only 3 years because their rights would still be current on
that one.

I am still hunting in vain for Velvet Arrow, a J&P release from the
early 1990s that has wonderful (albeit scentless) fat red blooms.
