Do you have both roses on your place ?  

Yes.  Golden Celebration is nearly at peak now.

Which has the better Bush ? 

At this point GC is smaller, and GT is tall, as
you know (I always have to have a few stakes
inserted strategically).  GT's flowers grow in
larger clusters (more flowers per stem), too, I
would say.

Where did you get Golden Celebration?

Oh my impatience will show -- got it at
Portland Nursery on grafted stock last year.

Heirloom does not list it in there catalog ?

If not, I'm sure they'll get it soon.  It really is
lovely.
