Last year, I discovered the rose breeder, Junie Burns, who lives and breeds roses up in Oregon. I had a short conversation with her last year as I fell in love with one of her roses, Burlesque. It so reminded me of the rose, Just Imagine, which never came from Ludwigs (unfortunately) and is not available here in the US. Last year she told me that Heirloom was going to be selling this rose. I thought it was going to be available this year and so I have been checking their website over and over to see if it is available. Nada. Nothing.
So I called Junie again this morning to ask about Burlesque. She stated it will be an offering by Heirloom for 2020. Ugh! Need to wait a few more months for it. It is fragrant, a great bloomer, disease resistant and STRIPES!!!! We had such a nice conversation about her rare breed chickens that she has, the roses she breeds, etc. What a wonderful person! Just a delight.
Here is the rose I am talking about and can't wait until Heirloom offers it (not that I know where I am going to put it!).

Here is Just Imagine offered by Ludwigs that is not available (although Beth has one in her garden--lucky girl!).
