Forget the J&P roses. I won't even add them to our ATP database. They don't list a registration name, so they're highly likely to be older roses that have been given a new name to trick the unwary buyer. Clouds of Glory, for instance, is a dead ringer for Pristine, an older J&P rose.

The only new rose that's caught my eye isn't on your list. I found it on the Regan Nursery website. It isn't that new (before 2006, according to HMF), but it's new to me. Regan will be selling it as Raspberry Kiss, but HMF already has five other names for it.

I'm thinking of placing an order with Palatine, just because I always do, and also because they offer Lynette as a grafted rose. I have an own-root Lynette from Roses Unlimited, but it's never going to be as spectacular as it would be in the grafted form. I want to replace my favorite own-root roses with grafted roses whenever possible, especially now that grafted roses seem to be on the way out on this continent. I hope Palatine doesn't follow Pickering's example and switch to nothing but own-root plants, but it may do that someday.
