I've been lusting after this rose for years.  Very difficult to find, and
the one source I did have quit offering it.  After reading horror stories
of how difficult it is, I decided to not pursue it any further.  Then, last
summer, I actually saw the rose in full bloom in Toronto.  It was
incredible.  Now the lusting starts all over again.  Where are you getting
yours?

> Baron Girod de l'Ain  Hybrid perpetual rose

I've had mine 4 years, very reliable, beautiful blooms.  No problems at all
and I highly recommend it.  Not a really _heavy_ bloomer, but the blooms
are so unique I wouldn't be without it.

> Eugene Furst Hybrid perpetual rose

Wonderful rose, good bloomer.  Blooms in heavy flushes for me.

> Baroness Rothchild  Hybrid perpetual rose

Well, it's a classic.  Mine isn't fragrant for some reason.  But a
remarkably beautiful bloom and free blooming.

> Baron Prevost  Hybrid perpetual rose

Ordered it for the Spring.

> Mrs. John Laing  Hybrid perpetual rose

Don't have this one either, but it's high on my list of "must haves".
