Thanks Kirra,
Interesting article. I did find reference to a private garden in Adelaide,
Yvonnes Rose Garden, that had this rose but the link is no longer current. I
will keep trying and hopefully will find someone growing this rose.
Many thanks

Just wondering if anyone could point me to somewhere where I might be
able
to buy a rose called Jackie (breeder Moore Calf 1955)

Hi Jan,
Sorry, Jan, but I couldn't find any where listed on the internet that
sells
Jackie and since it is one of Mr Moore's older varieties, I imagine it
would
be hard to find. Perhaps it might be easier to find someone who actually
grows it and get a cutting ... ?
Paul Barden wrote an interesting article in 2002 about roses dropping out
of
commerce. He went on to specifically talk about Mr Moore's miniatures and
how some of them have been lost entirely. If you haven't read the article
already, perhaps you would be interested in reading it?

I hope you find Jackie.
