I have no idea if the nursery is still operating or not, but you could write to them at
881 Nowra Road, Fitzroy Falls NSW 2577.

Hello Mick Burgess,
The only way we can get more plants of 'Adam Burgess' (HORurbane), is to take budwood (cuttings off of a known plant- yours, for example), and I can organize some to be grown from said cuttings. Give me a call on 0457721977 and I'll tell you how we can go about it.
Sorry I haven't been in touch. I was persona non grata after Sue passed away, and I retired from the nursery. Currently living at Laurieton on the mid north coast. Nice to hear from you. Hope all is well with you.


sincerely,
Steve Beck.

Many thanks for taking the time Steve,
so pleased that you are well and starting a new chapter in your life...has the Nursery been closed???......I have taken so long to finally follow up, as I was saddened to hear about Sue from Denis Dempsey. I am not a rose expert and was going to try and read how to propagate from cuttings, just thought I would throw at the stumps through this platform, in case a nursery had some. If you don't mind I will give you a call on the week end, or if you prefer will see if Denis can do for me?
Take care my good man and wish you all the very best for the future.
Warmest Respect and Regards
Mick B

I understand the nursery is still functioning. For warm weather cuttings, have a look at www.heritageroses dot org dot au/articles/rose-propagation-ziplock-bag-technique/ (replace dot with .). Don't put any labels into the bag with the cuttings.
For rarities you may prefer to have an each-way bet, and get a nursery to bud them for you.
