That is not Vineyard Song. Vineyard Song is purple/mauve. Never pink

Wow. Not much Golden in that Century. My blooms fade in mid-summer but never to white.

I suspect that is not really Golden Century. It is never that yellow, nor does it fade like that. 'Golden Century' displays a Chinese red reverse when opening, that fades to dark coral/peach. Plus, the bloom form is wrong. That looks more like 'Climbing Jackie' to me, or possibly 'Climbing Rise 'N' Shine'.

A very charming little plant that grows like a dwarf China. It has a pleasant, sweet fragrance as well.

Are you aware that Garden Roses LLC is using this photo on their rose sales page for The Prince?

In the USA we have something called copywrite. Thanks to the efforts of the Disney Co., copywrite protection in the USA is very generous to copywrite owners.. If someone who produces a piece of intellectual property, a book, photo, etc., declines to do the work of applying for copywrite and spending the money for fees, then I do believe his or her product can be regarded as in the public domain.

You may know more about the subject than me, but does that imply the HMF notice on every photo is useless?

No, it does not. If someone steals content from a site that clearly displays a Copyright statement, then that person has perpetrated an Intellectual Property Rights violation. Legal actions CAN be taken.

It is NOT public domain if the site hosting the content clearly labels it as Copyrighted material. This is done here on HMF specifically to prevent (as much as possible) the misuse of the photos provided by users. If a nursery wants to use a photo found on HMF, all they have to do is contact the author and ask permission. Few would say no. But taking it without permission is offensive, and a violation of Intellectual Property Rights.

Agree, Paul, that few would say no to the request for utilizing a photo, it seems like the majority of the HMF members are just plain old garden folks who would be tickled to have their amateur snapshot featured in a catalog. And it doesn't seem like much effort for a nursery to reach out to make the request. Plus it seems like you are right regarding the Intellectual Property/Copyright issues, otherwise everything on the internet would belong to everyone, which is certainly not the case.

Unfortunately, there are many who DO believe that anything published on the web is theirs to use as they wish. This entitlement has created huge problems for many creatives.

I agree with Paul in that any nursery who wants to use a HMF photo for their commercial listing should reach out to the photographer/owner and request permission in writing, it just makes sense (independently of the copyright issue). As far as the copyright issue, I haven't looked into it enough to make a pronouncement.
