Paula - it is somewhat funny....I just noticed that Murfsmomma (Pam)
responded to your inquiry with the same answer.....I met her last weekend at
the Antique Rose Emporium for the 1st time...they were having a Rose Rustler
Symposium. Anyway, to make a long story short, I originally met her on this
very computer 6 weeks earlier. Small world....you never know the friends you
can acquire when you garden.

Paula - I'm not sure if they will have that exact rose but I do know that the
Antique Rose Emporium in Independence, Texas has many of the David Austin
roses. They have a facility in Georgia also, north of Atlanta. Not sure on
the Atlanta phone number but I can get you the one in Texas. I wish I had a
800 number for you but I do not know what it is......I think they have one so
when you call them you can ask....their number is 409/836-5548. The guy who
owns the place is Mike Shoop (sp)...he is also one of the founders of the
Texas Rose Rustlers.....their mission is to locate old, antique roses and
save them from destruction and to propogate them so that they are one again
in the trade and will not become extinct. They have many, many old varieties
and some or still unknown...they are simple named for the person's yard they
were found, the semitary or the road. Anyway...good luck
