| Good morning all! I have decided that I have a need to add a few roses to my collection as soon as possible and if you know a good place to buy them please let me know: Mutabilis, own-root please. I love this rose and loves the way the flowers dance in the breeze Rainbow's end - the mini not the climber. I first bought it at Tiny Petals so many years ago Mother's Love, another mini that I truly miss French Perfume These are a few that are missed and we are looking to find. |

| If it was me I would start by looking at the web sites of Rogue Valley Roses (it is in So Oregon), and Burlington (it is in CA). Both are very reputable mail order nurseries. If the roses you want are on their web sites, I would call them to make sure they have them. If you go to Help Me Find/roses, and search for each rose, you will, after clicking on the rose, find a screen which has a "Buy From" button on the top right hand side. Click on this, and it will show you a list of nurseries which theoretically carry that rose. IMPORTANT - go to the bottom of the list and click on the "Show all nurseries..." bar. Otherwise you will only see nurseries which contribute to that site. Good Luck! Jackie |

| Rainbows end might be in a Lowe's near you. The ones near me in SoCal carry it pretty consistently. |

| The local (La Sumida) has Ingrid Bergman and Knapp's has Mutabilis ($11) if you are doing a Santa Barbara road trip |

| Kippy, Did not see a rose price list at La Sumida. Do you know how much their Austins are? TIA |

| If I remember right, all 5g's except Iceberg are $26 or $28? no special DA pricing. I think Climbers might be a couple of dollars more but they might have changed that this season. They just had a sale a couple of weeks ago and usually have a second sale pretty soon. Their rose fields are full still have they have a wonderful stock of really big roses in big pots or on trellises and some rather mature tall tree/standards too. If you are looking for a certain rose, call and ask if they have it. They have a big back nursery space and might have what you are looking for off display. If you are not familiar with the area, they are right off Patterson, a freeway exit, on the ocean side of the hwy. Just before you get to them, there is Terra Sol that is fun to stop and enjoy their collection of different garden plants, pots and fountains. |

| Thanks for the tip off on Terra Sol. A jaunt to SB is coming up. |

| If you are coming up o. The weekend. Knapp nursery is having a sale. You do have to friend them on Facebook. They are smaller and family run, located off Cathedral Oaks rd a couple of miles from the other two. I got Mutabilis and a Cl Cecile Brunner from them |
|
| Andrea Stelzer was very stingy for me, but it might be a CA-type rose. If your heart is set on AS, and you can tolerate R. multiflora rootstock, Wisconsin Roses shows it on their "small numbers" list, it will be a newly budded maiden. Affirm is a better clear pink (IMHO). |
