Hello,

I am trying to log into my original account. My user name is LadyBren. I have tried various passwords to no avail. I have several roses registered here that need updates but I can't get to them. Two in particular are 'Lady Bren' and 'Chelsea Brittlyn' which will be commercially available in the coming months.

I set up a new HMF account yesterday but that does not help me to make updates on my earlier submissions.

For further validation, my website is brenpollock.com. I have a rose section that I am developing as well.

I apologize in advance for the trouble. I have changed my email address in the past several years, not sure if that is the problem?

Thank you for your time.

Thank you so very much. My old email was with @live.com and could have been under several addresses. I think it was ladybren@live.com and/or brendapollocksmith@live.com. I know my user name was LadyBren.

Thank you ever so much!

'Chelsea Brittlyn' is no longer named 'Peppermint Patty' due to a legal dispute. It is also not available at Greenheart Farms or Nor'East for the same reason. Contact Joe or Brenda Smith for inquiries for availability of this rose. You can reach us at ccrsweb@live.com or through the California Coastal Rose Society. Thank you

I have just received the information from Jeanie Haupt of NOr'East/Greenheart Farms that the miniature rose Chelsea Brittlyn is now being sold as Peppermint Patty. I don't know how these changes work, but can you note this under Peppermint Patty? To 20".

Thanks,

Gwen

There is already a miniature rose registered under the name of Peppermint Candy. I wonder why Nor'east would want to rename a registered rose and to give it the name of another registered rose.

Nor'East is doing it for marketing purposes. And the new name that Chelsea Brittlyn is being marketed under by Nor'East to all of its wholesale customers is "Peppermint Patty" not Peppermint Candy.

So, Peppermint Patty, should be included as a synonym for Chelsea Brittlyn in the names section, but the ARS registered name and the Exhibition Name should remain Chelsea Brittlyn.

I believe Cass intended to refer to 'Peppermint Patty' as that name is already in use too.

This is sure to create unnecessary confusion and it would be helpful to know the full story as to why they have opted to use this name as it conflicts with a (somewhat) similar rose introduced by them.

It is likely there is more to this story and we invite additional feedback before making any changes.

I don't think there's anything else to the story. The person who discovered the sport of Aristocrat and who named it Chelsea Brittlyn (after her daughter as a 16th birthday present to her) is a friend of mine. That's what Nor'East told her -- she was disappointed by their decision, but wanted them to continue to market it, which they would agree to do only under the Peppermint Patty name. So now that rose (Chelsea Brittlyn) will be found in big box stores and the like (Nor'East's wholesale customers) under the other name (Peppermint Patty).

Pardon my confusion regarding their having already used this name. We've updated this listing but do you have a reference we can add ?

There's nothing in print of which I am aware.

I think the name Peppermint Patty was used for a red blend/striped rose introduced by a Michigan man named Gruenbauer in 1990. I tried to look him up and found an obituary. Perhaps the chapter of the American Rose Society of which he was a member would have information on whether this rose is still in cultivation.

As for why Nor'east can use the same name, ???? Maybe the first one was not patented or trademarked?
