I also love his roses, but I do wish they were available from sources other than Rogue Valley. I like Rogue Valley and I have many, many wonderful roses from Rogue Valley, but they just don't have the knack or whatever it takes to grow Barden roses. All of the big and healthy Barden roses in my garden came from The Uncommon Rose, and every Barden rose I've bought from Rogue Valley has been a great disappointment.
