| Posted by zuzu (Northern California - Zone 9a) on Sep 13, 2012 11:14 PM The rose currently being sold as 'Bloomfield Abundance' may not be the real thing. DNA tests performed at Florida Southern University indicate that all of the 'Bloomfield Abundance' plants available for sale in the United States and Britain are virtually identical to 'Cecile Brunner.'
