Cute!
Reminds me of the one my son posted on FB a few days ago. He & his wife just got a second kitty, 7 weeks old, named Violet. They searched the entire house the other day for her and finally found her peacefully sleeping on the end table. She looks like part of the decor!

She does. She looks like a paperweight. What a sweetie!

Two questions: is there an entry in the database for Climbing Pinkie? And is there an easy way to get from the database back to the roses homepage?

I'm not sure, but I think Climbing Pinkie would go here Rose (Rosa 'Pinkie') . The only info filled in for it so far is the automatic stuff that's probably why it's not listed as a climber. Yet.

That's actually an entry for the nonclimbing variety, but Chelle's right. You could have put it there and I just would have changed the name to 'Pinkie, Cl.' and that would have been fine, but I might as well make a new one for you, Porkpal, because someone's bound to have the nonclimbing variety too.

I'll be back with the link in a minute.

Here's the link, Porkpal. I'll fill in the details for the climbing and nonclimbing Pinkies soon.

Rose (Rosa 'Pinkie, Cl.')

Is Eglantine in the database and I'm too much of a goof to find it? There are times when I still can't find the obvious.

Did you mean Eglantyne?

Rose (Rosa 'Eglantyne')

If you're talking about 'Eglantine,' the little polyantha, it isn't there, but I can create an entry for you.

The species rose, R. eglanteria, Sweet Briar, R. rubiginosa
The Eglantine of Shakespeare's time. I suspect David Austin played on this name for his modern rose Eglantyne like he did with some of his other rose names.
I find roses that are almost it, but not quite, so maybe it's not in there yet. I thought it was common enough that I figured somebody already entered it long ago and I'm just not looking right.

I'm not sure why I still grow this unruly thorny beast, but I've got pictures of it.

Nope, no one entered it because you're apparently the only person growing it. I'll create the entry and get back to you.

Here's the link, Tabby.

Eglantine (Rosa rubiginosa)

Unruly? Thorny? Sounds like my kind of rose!

If you want really really unruly, get Harisons' Yellow. It went from one small twig to eating 30 feet of yard in under 10 years. Nasty, pickery rose that pops up everywhere. It doesn't even smell nice.

If you want big, but friendly, get nice, almost thornless Chloris. It smells good too.

I have R. eglanteria, Sweet Briar.
Its leaves smell like apple.

Are any of these photos ok for the data base

Are you kidding, Joanna? They're beautiful!

Joanna - I wish my pix were half that good...

I grew the eglantine rose for some years in full shade. It never produced a blossom, but I loved it because on cool, damp, still, foggy days it could make my entire back yard smell deliciously of green apples.

I found these forum through the database, a great resource, especially the info on hybridiser and year of release, often hard to find. I wasn't able to find the rose Heidesommer on there though, is it under a different name?
