Hi There,
My name is John, I'm searching for a Cleopatra Rose. It's reddish pink in color with white accents. I've called around 50 growers and had to luck finding one.
We just lost our cat, Fuzz Face, whom we often called Fuzzopatra. We're hoping to bury her ashes with a Cleopatra rose as a tribute.
Do you have a Cleopatra rose in your garden? If not, do you know anyone who might?
I thank you for any of your time and efforts with this. Have a great day!

This might narrow Your search: http://www.helpmefind.com/rose/l.php?scope=1&countryID=2&oTyp=0&n=24891&l=2.3639.4&tab=17
These members might know, where You could buy a Cleopatra. Or might have cuttings.
OOps, I didn't see, You already asked them.

I'm not even sure which Cleopatra he wants. There are several of them.

Hi Give me caffeine,
Thank you for responding. The one I keep finding is pinkish red with a yellow/white-ish middle. So far no one has it. There's a garden called Cliff's High Desert Garden that has posted photos of one. I'm hoping they respond! :)

Hi Jay jay,
I'll try emailing both sites you suggested. The problem is you can't have plants for planting imported from other countries. Perhaps I can get seeds from them or find another source. Thank you so much for your help. If you find anymore possibilities please let me know. Have a great day! :)

Have you tried Hortico in Canada? No import restrictions there, and they ship to the US.

Ashwood was a mistake (UK) I saw their prices in $.
But importing from Canada is difficult too for an USA citizen? And Palatine sends to the USA.

Jay Jay,
I'm going to look into the possibility of importing something from Canada. It's a great question.

John,
Queries like this should be posted once to the comments tab of the rose in question. As such, you will be addressing the entire HMF community without the need to single out specific nurseries or individuals. Thank you and good luck.

A passing comment; seeds won't give you what you want - hybridised roses can't be guaranteed to breed true.

I can ask Cliff of Eurodesert roses for you to see if he has it and then he can send me cuttings and I can grow it for you. Pam from Angel Gardens

Hi Angel Gardens, Thank you for responding. Is Cliff still out there? That would be great if he is and has the Cleopatra rose! Please let me know what you find out. If he's in the Palm Desert I'm about 2 hours away and could go to him. Thank You! :)

Hi, I have written about this problem but you have not really responded. It seems that every time I have a newsletter request or a plant availability request I go to my page, click on the appropriate buttons, and then every time I hit "CONTINUE" I get the blank page that says "Oops!........ yadda yadda. So I have not been able to see my newsletter requests or complete the site guest requests. Something is messing up big time on my site. Please check! Thank you, pam

Hi Pam,
I'll check with the developers schedule; they're still sorting out issues with the new software but I'll ask them to address this sooner rather then later.

Hi Pam,
This issue has been resolved but we are still working with the gmail.com people to convince them HelpMeFind is NOT an internet spammer and to NOT block our emails.
The problem likely stems from people signing up for HMF email notifications and instead of later canceling their notification requests, they complain to their ISP about unwanted emails.
HelpMeFind does NOT send out unwanted emails: That is completely against our principles. We will soon be instituting a change to turn off a member's email notifications if they have not visited HMF in several months.

Did you get cuttings from Souv. de Claudius Denoyel? I just noticed my "Cuttings" page. Sorry for the delay. I would love to exchange for cuttings of Belle Epoque. My email is: gardenangel22@gmail.com. Let me know, Thanks, Pam
