Dear Alice,

As tempting as it is (I assure you I know)
I would not suggest you "dig" any roses
without permission. I have been known to
trim a little on "abandoned" roadside roses.
My rugosa cuttings did not propagate well 
at all. I'll try again sometime.
  
I did get some Centifolia cuttings from a gal
off the GardenWeb, and made a trade and
they are doing wonderful. 

English roses were my first intro. from the
hybrid teas, and I love Mary Rose,( pink)
Othello, (fushia) and Graham Thomas (a
lovely deep yellow - a must see.)  
Nice thing about most of the English and 
old roses is that they can be ignored and
flurish. St.Cecilia (light pink-English) has a 
wonderful fragrance and is still on my list as
it sells out fast.
Also like Abraham Darby's fragrance, a 
apricot rose that can get floppy.

Good luck with moving your roses. 
I too brought some with me. 
Wished I could have brought the compost 
too, but the new buyer had already seen it.
