Re: Looking for needle in a haystack

**A*@aol.com**

Hi everyone.  At the request of a friend, I'm looking for a needle in  a 
haystack.

She bought a pale pink semi-thornless, faintly scented, pale pink  climbing 
rose, with flowers 5-6 in a cluster,  over 10 years ago from White  Flower 
Farm. To me, in a photograph the flower looks very much like Bonica  in 
color and form.  You know what's coming!  Right!  She lost the  name of the rose.

Do any of you have an old White Flower Farm catalog from 10-15 years  ago?  
And if you do, would you be so kind as to take a look and see if you  can 
come up with something that might be the likely candidate?  WFF has  been 
absolutely unhelpful, and ARS hasn't been helpful either, so you all are  the 
last chance we have of identifying this rose.  If all else fails, I'm  going 
to suggest that she take a cutting and propagate it that way instead of  
trying to buy another one.

Thanks a bunch,

Lina Burton
