I have lost my only plant of Fortune Teller this winter and can't locate a source. If anyone knows of a place to purchase a plant or has some cuttings they would sell Id be very appreciative if they would let me know.

I have not been able to find Fortune Teller commercially, but I do have one bush growing in my garden.

Donna,
Yes I am still looking. I found two healthy specimens last summer growing at the Smithsonian on the Mall in DC and was sorely tempted to take (read: steal) cuttings but didnt. Please let me know if you have cuttings or know of a source, and thanks.

This is a patented rose and as such the selling of cuttings is illegal. HelpMeFind does not condone this activity and we ask that you please refrain from using this forum for posts of this nature.
Thank you for understanding.

This rose was patented in 1995 so it is out of Patent.

Hello folks. Does anyone know where I can find this rose or cuttings of it? Much of my collection of HT's are hard to find ones and this one has eluded me since I owned it some 30 years ago. Thanks....Jason

I had to get rid of mine, after it came out. Anywhere I placed it, the blooms became burned. So I offered it half-shade, and they could not open.
Shame, because it was pretty in its own way.

Fortune Teller surprised me this year. After a record number of rainfall days, I thought this rose would be a mess--full of blackspot, botrytis and downy mildew--but it was not. The foliage is green, the buds healthy and the blooms incredibly fragrant. I guess my spraying program worked. Or maybe it was the nutrition from compost and alfafa pellets and/or my improved pruning techniques. At any rate, I am very pleased.
