Hello, James. Are we certain that Gandy's is selling the polyanthas from the 1950's, newly packaged as "Compacta Roses"? I couldn't tell from checking the website.

Hi Cass,

Check the term "Compacta Roses" in the Help Me Find Glossary on the left of your screen.

C.W. Groves & Son also sells them as "Compacta Roses", and they have nice pictures.

"Compacta Roses" should indicate that Gandy's roses (without the pictures) are the correct polyanthas from the 1950's. 'A picture is worth a thousand words.'.

Hello Cass,
the term Compacte roses ist original from the Breeder who introduced them in the 1950s under this name because they are really diffrent from other miniature-roses

there is sometimes confusion with the German synonyms of the seven dwarfs, please look at the Q&C of Happy
