I bought Brownie about 10 years ago from Ashdown, which is now out of business. I don't remember seeing it offered by any other nursery. It was on the list at Vintage Gardens, but I never saw them offer any for sale.

I've never seen Beautiful Anne. It's too bad it isn't being sold by any other nursery. I have several Paul Barden roses that are healthy and vigorous, but they all came from The Uncommon Rose, which is now out of business. The ones I've bought from Rogue Valley haven't lived long. I like his roses, so I've bought about 10 of them from Rogue Valley, and only one of them (Won Fang Yon) lived for more than a year. The Uncommon Rose had better rooting techniques, I guess. All of those are still alive.

Coffee Country is a gorgeous rose, and it does grow very well on its own roots. It's certainly more vigorous than my Julia's Rose, but I think Julia's Rose came from Vintage Gardens, and most of their roses never grew as well as the ones from Roses Unlimited.
