Rosa Virgo

Does anyone know where I might get a Virgo rose? My old plant which was over thirty years old has died.

 

Hi Valerian, I've had a scout around the web, but there doesn't seem to be a supplier for this rose in the UK. Is your rose totally dead or is there a chance you could take a cutting or two from it?

Wise Owl, our wonderful rose expert here, may be able to give you some help tracking it down.

 

Like the Norwegian Blue parrot, it is dead. Defunct. It has ceased to exist! Sadly it is no more. R.I.P. Virgo.

 

Forgot to say thank you Sheal.

 

Your welcome. It's available on American websites if you're prepared to go down that road. You could also try it in our 'Wanted' Forum, you never know your luck.

Hi woo,hope your feeling better xx
Iceberg is a lovely rose,i couldnt see much differance between the that and virgo whilst i was googling about

 

Glad you're feeling better Woo.

 

Hello Joolz68, I went to ebay to look at the roses you mentioned and have bought a yellow white rose virgo. It doesn't look like the rose that I lost but I think that it may be the nearest to it that I will find. I have an Iceberg rose but the virgo held special memories for me.
to everyone who took the time to do some research on my behalf.

 

I know this was asked nearly 4 years ago, but today I bought Rosa Virgo at my local Home Bargains at the unbelievable price of 99P yes 99P! They also had a reasonable selection of other bush and climbing roses at the same price.
Not one to miss.

 

I've registered on this site after seeing the old post above. Like Gareth 42 I have just purchased a Virgo rose, literally yesterday - I am setting up a new 'meditation'/white garden and my star sign is Virgo so I couldn't resist. I might go back for more after seeing how difficult they are to find now. Mine was £1 in the Poundworld store!!
