What websites or nursery sells Mirandy?

I am looking to add a few more mirandy roses to my garden but I cannot find it anywhere. The only places I can find them are online but I hear less than favorable reviews for websites like direct gardening.com. Home Depot and lowes sell them online but I was hoping to find it from an actual nursery (with the hopes that it will be more developed and have a better chance of living).

If anyone would be so kind as to point me in the direction of a website that sells my favorite rose, I would be eternally thankful.

Have you ever looked at HelpMeFind? You enter a rose's name in the search field and a file-page comes up. One of the tabs is "Buy From" which shows nurseries carrying that particular rose. I got mine as a VID band from Vintage Gardens, but with that nursery closing, you'll have to look through some of the others. The other option is, since you already have a few, is to try rooting cuttings yourself. Keep in mind that if your others are grafted, own-root 'Mirandy' might not show the same degree of vigor. I know it from only my own-root plant, and while I wouldn't call it "wimpy" I am guessing that most mid-20th Century Hybrid Teas would grow more vigorously on rootstock. See the link below for nurseries listing 'Mirandy'.

Earlier in spring, I found Mirandy at Lowe's. Havent planted it yet, but it is a very healthy plant and though they may be sold out of them, perhaps might still have a few left. It is blooming for the 2nd time - they are lovely and are fragrant.
