I can't see any listed nursery offering them in north America (not all nurseries list their wares on helmefind). It looks like Perle von Heidelberg may be lost. I think your best bet is to contact a Heritage Roses group in Canada or northern USA.
For other roses: click on Plants - search/lookup in the left menu, then type in the name of the rose you want and click on Search. If more than one rose with that name appears on a list, click on the one you think most likely. When you get to the page for the rose, click on the Buy From tab at the top right of the page.

Why are the two dots on the e in Wassenaër? Wassenaer is the old Dutch spelling for the town of Wassenaar. I couldn't find references to justify the use of the two dots.

We have added some early references with the spelling "Wassenaër". While you are correct that in Dutch it is "Wassenaer", the French spell the name with ë, which Verdier seems to have followed.

The use of the diacritical marks "Schwa", "umlaut" shown as two dots over an "a" or "e" usually is meant to show a stress on that syllable to reflect how it actually sounds when spoken. This usage is reported to have been popularized in the early 1800's by the Grimm brothers.

In German, yes, but in French? I remember also 'Cécile Brünner', dedicated to the sister of 'Ulrich Brunner'. Brunner is correct.
