Hi, Chelle. I avoid growing Albas in general because they only bloom once a year and I just don't have the space for any more roses that don't rebloom, but I agree that this is a gorgeous rose. When I looked it up on HMF, I saw that it's available from many sources other than Hortico.

Unless you're absolutely determined to buy it from Hortico, I'd caution you against taking that chance. Hortico's like the "little girl with the little curl": When it's good, it's very, very good, and when it's bad, it's horrid.
