Hello

I wonder if it is possible to name a rose after my wife? What I am
looking
for is one that I can name that will go out to numerous garden centre's
etc and become a "known" variety. I was diagnosed with terminal cancer
last August and wanted to do this before I go, Can anyone here help me,
or
is there something similar I can do before too long?

Thank Simon
Thank you everyone for your help and kind words. I will contact David
Austin
and see if he can help. I wanted the name Georgina Joy for the rose, not
my
nick name for her which is lettuce as she is always in the garden. I
think
Georgina Joy may sound better.

Thanks again for all the help xx


I think a nice name like that should get a sympathetic hearing - Good
luck

Thank you Charlie

I have emailed both David Austin and Beales and will await their reply. I
will, of course, let you all know the outcome.

Can I just once again thank you for your kind words and thoughts.
