Hello,

I am a new member outside of Portland, Oregon. (Canby) I am hoping to connect with other members in my area that grow old, antique roses. I have experience with climbers and ramblers when I lived in Southern Oregon for 35 years. Now starting over with a brand new garden. Thank you. [email protected]null

Hi Katherine, Welcome to HPSO! I'm a longtime perennial gardener but new to roses. Just planted two Vilchenblau ramblers after viewing them in another member's garden. I want to pick up a couple of Clematis 'Minuet' to combine with the roses. Also purchased two David Austen roses; Lady Emma Hamilton this year. Hope to add a few more in the next year. Cheers, Alyson in Vancouver WA

Wow, Alyson, the Vilchenblau is beautiful. I had one in Southern Oregon but it was slow growing. I hope to order roses online and have ordered from Heirloom in St. Paul until 2018. I know they changed hands so I am not sure about getting my new ones from them. I have never purchased from David Austin in Europe. But hope to next spring. Thanks for reaching out. Maybe we can share our gardens with a visit. I am moving in to my new house next week. Lots and lots of planning. I hired a landscape architect because I really want to do it right this time.-Katherine

Also I volunteer at the Rogerson Clematis Garden in West Linn, Oregon. Inspiring.

Katherine, you do not have to order David Austin roses from England. Their American headquarters is in Texas. Go to www.davidaustinrose.com where you can also order a free catalog.

I love the antique roses and the Austins. I have several in my garden (about a dozen Austins) and has run out of room for more.

I also grow old and antique roses. I just purchased Dr. W. Van Fleet. I love old rugosas and big climbers. I have Sally Holmes and ZÉPHIRINE DROUHIN. I would love to know your source for ordering other than Heirloom. I have Jude the Obscure and Abraham Darby too. I garden in Canby, Oregon.

Hello. If you haven't visited the Rogerson Clematis Garden in West Linn, OR make it a priority. Near my house in Canby. (30min) and I volunteer here once a week. I am growing two Clematis into roses for the first time this year.
