Where are you? If we knew then folks could recommend nurseries that are not too far away from you.

Rogue Valley Roses carries it and has it available in bands right now.

Ingrid

Thank you Ingrid. I have never done bands before. Can you tell me more?
Jacqueline, I am in Pearland, TX.

Bands are very small pots, quite a bit smaller than 1-gallon pots and so of course the rose is very small too, but they grow quite fast most of the time. I plant mine in the ground a few days after I receive them but many people plant them into 1 gallon pots and then later even 2- and 5-gallon pots as the root system and the rose bush grow. Either way they do quite well, depending on your local conditions, and I've lost very few of them, and then usually because it was my fault. They're on their own roots, which is a good thing because you'll never have suckers to worry about. The reason they're sent in such small pots is because shipping would be much more expensive if you send a bigger rose in a larger pot. They do offer some roses that way even on on-line nurseries, but most people opt for the band size, unless they're buying them bare-root, which you can only do when the roses are dormant.
I hope this helps.

Ingrid

Yes Ingrid, very helpful Thank you so much ! I will call ARE just in case they have it, if not I will order from Rogue valley.

hi,

I just checked and Vintage Gardens also has Rose Edouard available. I have found that Vintage Gardens' bands are larger and healthier than ones I've received from Rogue Valley Roses (I won't order bands from RVR any more.)

I always transfer my bands into one gal pots first although sometimes the bands I get from Vintage are so large I need to put them in 2 or 3 gal pots to grow on for a time.

Thankyou Fogrose. I will check out the Vintage site.
Thanks everyone for your responses.
