Anyone know who sells this in the US? Or how it might perform in zone 10b (So Cal)?

Rose jacqueline du pre Does not appear to be available for purchase anywhere in the US.
Would love to have a cutting at least.
Update: Heirloom Roses has it now.
Update April 2021 US zone 9b. I have had this rose, in a pot, for a couple of years now. The scent is my favorite of all my roses I love the form of the flower and its red stamens. It has at least a few blooms throughout the season. Its prickles remind me of rugosas. It is not a flower for cutting, lasting only a day, but it is a delight.

'Jacqueline du Pré' was one of my biggest disappointments in rose growing. I purchased this rose from Vintage Gardens in 1999 and 2002 and from Heirloom Roses in 2007. Every one failed to thrive and died. I only persisted in purchasing this rose since it was considered "the future of shrub roses" in some book to which I gave credence (maybe Harkness or Austin). Perhaps the clone in the USA was weak and not representative of the mother plant and died out for those vendors that sold it.

Mine, from Vintage also died and it was a disease ridden mess while still alive. I thought at the time it couldn't tolerate my climate. I don't know about hardiness because it died before winter came. It looked so pretty in the pictures. sigh

I came here to find out how its cut flowers were--thank you for providing that insight! I'll leave them on the bush :)

Modern Roses 12 points "Mini Eden" to "MIMI Eden", in bold, with all the correct info about Meilland, etc. I am not sure if It's a typo but maybe "Mimi Eden" should be listed as the synonym? I am not sure if anything was updated in subsequent "Modern Roses". I don't understand this "Mimi" because it is just a miniaturized version of Eden, who is this Mimi?

Mimi is surely a typo. Meilland's website calls it: Rosier grimpant mini PIERRE DE RONSARD ® Meibigboni

Does anyone else find the name MEIbigboni hilarious? He's not fat, he's just big boned!

Hi There!
I wanted to find out if you were still in commerce--I saw that you've had some recent updates but couldn't find a phone number or website. I've been after Grace Seward for a while, and it looks like you might grow it? Is that accurate? I'd love to purchase if at all possible. Thanks for carrying miniatures!!
Aaron
