Rose Probably American Beauty? http://www.helpmefind.com/sites/rrr/pl.php?n=192 I concur. It does look amazingly healthy. My neighbhor purchased one are the movie and it has been an absolute dog. Disease after disease. Can't figure it out. Wonder if the older ones are more disease resistant than the newer ones. Of course, this one's seen quite a bit of disease and more but it loves an east facing. That's something I'll keep in mind as I try for another rosebush. Rose |

This bush does bloom again when the weather turns cooler - say September/October. But it doesn't bloom as profusely. And does it have a rich scent? Very. It's the classic rose scent. Reminds me of Victorian times. Rose |

Do you or anyone know if any nursery has ever done this kind of thing and, if so, how much it might cost? Rose (who just might get on the phone and find out) |

Rose your best bet would be to contact a local consulting rosarian. They are usually more than willing to help at stuff like this. Maybe they can root a few extra for their raffles. Nurseries typically produce budded roses by a long multi year process. These roses are produced in Texas & Califirnia typically. They are then shipped around the country. -- Theo in Zone 5 Kansas City "Rose" wrote in message om... (Unique Too) wrote in message ...

Do you or anyone know if any nursery has ever done this kind of thing and, if so, how much it might cost? I think a consulting rosarian would be more likely to help. But I do know Giles used to graft roses for people. I don't remember the costs involved, but they were reasonable. If you try that route a small nursery that grows their own plants would be your best bet. If you have a "mom 'n pop" one in your area, it wouldn't hurt to try. Julie I know of a couple of good "mom 'n pop" operations around here. I'll try them. I also think I'll try Cass's suggestions on trying it myself. Can't hurt to go both ways. Many thanks to all of you for your help. At least now I have a direction to go in. Rose |
