I'm also a fan. It's one of the very few roses that I grow in multiples. RW was one of a small group of roses billed as "English Roses Born (Bred?) in America" that J&P introduced in the late 90s/very early 2000s. That was a period when a lot of us were (inexplicably, in my case) going ape over Austins, & J&P was attempting to jump on the band wagon.

The first RWs sold by J&P were on Dr Huey; then for a number of years they sold it as a "New Generation" (own-root) rose. I prefer RW grafted; for me, it was very slow to build-up on its own roots, but worth the wait. This rose is a show-stopper when sharing a bed with blue salvia.

I got it from J&P too as a bonus for buying a trellis. It has done very well and puts out lots of blooms. Mine has stayed a very small bush, but I do like the color and shape of the flowers.

Charleney, you are one lucky lady to have gotten ROYAL WEDDING. I've heard nothing but good about it over the years that I've heard about it. You scored on this one! :)

Clare, I'm enthralled with your gorgeous photo of this beautiful rose. Thanks! :)

Are any nurseries now carrying it? I would like at least 3 more of them!

Roses Unlimited has it. If they're sold out this year, they're sure to have it next season.

I think Heirloom also has RW. I've received some impressive bands from Heirloom, but even the largest of those are smaller than what I routinely receive from RU.

Because RW on its own roots tends to be slow, I would recommend RU simply because you're likely to get a larger plant.
