QuestionI am trying to locate a climbing rose named Butterscotch. I have the original tag and it states Butterscotch, bluff yellow rose, 1942. Any ideas?
AnswerRoses are sometimes likes dress style, they can come and go depending on whether the gardeners like them or not. If they are not popular then nurseries won't carry them the next year. I seem, to remember that Butterscotch was one of those roses. What I would do is give Vintage Gardens a phone call as they used to carry this rose and because the owner is extremely knowledgeable, he will probably be able to tell you where you can find it if it is still available.
