| Here is what I am going to receive: Hommage a Soupert et Notting Alexis Lepère Earl of Eldon François Arago Laurent Carle Here is what I requested but will not receive: Earl of Nanjing Eugene Boullet (really wanted) La Motte Sanguine Comte de Torres I was really disappointed, particularly as they said the didn't expect any varieties to "sell out" immediately. I placed my order bright and early. Anyone else care to share what he she requested/received? Susan |

| Ah Susan well done grabbing Earl of Eldon. I was gunning for him as well. |
|
| I was also trying for Earl of Eldon but have not heard from Vintage yet. I also was disappointed as they sent the email at 11pm for ordering to begin the next morning at 9am. I didn't see the email til a bit after 9 and needed time to research. Wish they had given us a day or two to study. Diane |

| Well, I was up early that day and did my homework...I just got the impression there was no sense of "rush" to getting my order in. I will be more than happy to take cuttings of Earl when the time is right if someone will explain how I should do it. I really really wanted Boullet and Earl of Nanjing.... I'm more than glad to pass on cuttings of anything anyone wants. Susan |

| In that last offering I ordered one rose, Soyeuse de Lyon. I really wanted it and will be getting it. |

| I agree Diane, I read the email the next day about 10am. No point in even looking at the list by then I figured. |
|
| I got notice yesterday that I got all 5 of my choices! First time this has happened. Figured I would be lucky to get one. Guess this will be my last Vintage order, so really thrilled to get these treasures. Soyeuse de Lyon Judith |
|
| Just got an email from Gita. Will receive but not Earl of Eldon which is what I wanted the most. Oh well. Diane |

| Diane and Josh and anyone wanting Earl of Eldon (or anything else I will receive), I will gladly share! Is it possible to mail you all "cuttings" which aren't rooted? I haven't rooted anything before but I got some great suggestions on another thread. I was looking through the Vintage catalog last night. Amazing how many roses they had! Gosh. |

|
| I will also be glad to share anything I have. Got prime spots picked out for these roses - hopefully by next spring they will be growing well and I can take cuttings. Judith |

| The cuttings directions on the hartwood roses site work well. Try it outside when its cool or inside under a full spectrum plant light. You need to keep them cool or it has a low success rate. |

| Well, every time I've gone to their site to order, I've been so confused I just let it drop. |
|
| STILL no confirmation of my order, which is supposed to arrive October 10. I guess I'll definitely be able to call this a surprise package! Ingrid |
|
| Today I received a beautiful little plant of 'Luter'/'Wildenfels Gelb' as the last rose I will receive from Vintage. A bittersweet day, for sure. |
