i can only advise you as to own root..they are ashdown, chamblees, vintage gardens, high country roses...in no particular order. i have ordered **alot** from all of these vendors, and have only good to say about them. you didn't specify if you were looking for old roses or newer cultivars, or if it doesn't matter..so if you want to go own root, this is a good place to start..maybe someone else will jump in with best places to buy grafts.i do think that you may have passed the time to plant grafts being in zone 7, and maybe even own roots..you might want to ask for advice from someone in your zone if you get a reply from a zone 7 member..i can't advise you on that. good luck...donna

Ask bay laurel not to root trim. I've bought a lot of plants from, and have been happy except for the last pear, root was trimmed to almost nothing. Doans is probably low on inventory right now, but will receive their Dave Wilson trees next feb or so. Bay laurel, doans, raintree all resell Dave Wilson trees. Doans also has le Cooke trees, which are sometimes better. Womack is normally home grown trees, which I really like--but I suspect they resell a few Dave Wilson trees also If you're going to buy out of state, look at raintree, one green world, isons, just fruits and exotics--but be sure to pick the right rootstock for dallas. Anything from doans is ok here. Most everything from womacks is ok, but being mail order they sell throughout the country, so be sure to ask them if it'll grow in dallas.

...are you in the U.K...? most of us here prefer Trevor White Roses, then there's Peter Beales or David Austin.... among a host of others.... ..here's a link to Trevor White's where they have both those roses listed... Autumn Damask is 'Quatre Saisons'....Damask roses ..I grow 'Jacques Cartier' which repeats flower rather well, and nicely scented...

Sylvia Wendel Riflis there is no politics on this board. Cut it out. Sylvia Wendel This is one of the very few places I can go without reference to that sort of thing. Please, please let’s keep it that way. Thank you. Moses, Western PA., zone 5/6, USA Sylvia, I second your statement. Thank you for making it. Very well. I see your point. I had planned on making reference to the disturbing matter of Comrade Buljanoff, but, now, will not.
