Did you click the BUY FROM tab on the rose page ? It is commercially available.

Alas, not from Rogue Valley Roses. Or at least not from their website. I'll give them an email, perhaps they do not have it up yet.
thanks.

That's a good idea. Many nurseries have not updated their inventories for 2012.

And some nurseries' inventories change daily

Well, I suppose I assumed that nursery employees were not as apt as others (i.e. me) to still be either carousing or recovering from said carousing and failing to update their website. Fatal Mistake!
In New Orleans, from whence I came, carousing will continue for some time, until Ash Wednesday. Christmas runs into New Year and into Epiphany, with Revillon dinners running into King Cake Season to Mardi Gras Ball schedules to Carnival parades, right into the cold hard day that is Ash Wednesday. So websites never get updated till Lent . . . .
so I should not be annoyed at Rogue Valley Roses for not satisfying my Purple Poodle lust posthaste.
damn pretty rose though

This variety is currently in production and will not be available until 2013, sorry!

Nooooo! It is NOT yet available to buy, and won't be until at the earliest, 2013. Please note: "Purple Poodle" was just a study name; that will not be its commercial name once released.

Thank you for breeding it. I used to own Pink Poodle and loved its dark stamens and unique form, thinking that was not reproducible . . . wrong!
Consider a New Orleans carnival name. That rose is as Mardi Gras as it gets. Thanks again.

Hi Sarah,
A name has already been chosen and submitted to the registrar and has been accepted: it is now known as Carolyn Supinger, named, of course, for Ralph Moore's manager at Sequoia Nursery, and a very dear friend of mine.

Contact Rogue Valley Roses to inquire about availability: it may be ready for sale in Spring 2014.

Thanks.

It appears Rogue Valley Roses has located this rose and is now offering it in their catalog.

Hi. Where did you find the Lavender Simplex? It seems to be a lost rose.
I, too, like the singles.

This rose seems to have disappeared, and there are many people looking for it. If you have it, cuttings would be very popular, so advertise the fact on gardenweb or dave's garden. You could have swap gold.

Grace Seward is a lovely rose, with pink anthers and dark stamens. Its scent is amazing. I lost mine in Katrina, and miss it keenly.
