I wanted to change my password, but my computer automatically opens, and there was not a screen to change my password. You sent a temporary, but it automatically opens so I can't change it . I opened profile but there was no place to change the password.
I use my ipad, iphone, and other computers, this office I am only here one week a month, so I need to know my password for other computers??? Passwords are just tooo much

Hello fleur44,
http://www.helpmefind.com/rose/l.php?l=2.3129
You need to spell it properly, the search/lookup can be brutal if you don’t, ‘Gruss an Aachen’. It is listed as a Floribunda, Hybrid Tea, Polyantha, take your pick!

The ARS has it as a Floribunda

Raised in 1909, isn’t that a bit early for a floribunda?

Yes. Modern Roses 1 in 1930 classified it as a polyantha. The floribundas came on to the market in the 1930s and by 1952 Modern Roses 4 decided that it looked like a floribunda and so changed their classification. I think David Austin thought it was the epitome of what he wanted his English roses to look like.

Its ancestors are a hybrid perpetual and hybrid teas. To me, it seems strange to classify a rose by what it looks like rather than what it actually is, but I’m sure the great and good at the ARS know what they are doing. It is a lovely rose.

Andrew ... a couple of comments:
For the SEARCH feature, if one is uncertain of the spelling of a rose, you can use the drop down list and enter one of the other choices to search the database.
As for 'Gruss an Aachen' being classified as a floribunda ... it was the first rose to receive that classification from the ARS. It didn't quite fit the polyantha classification.

When I type in a name to search the only other names that appear in the drop down list are roses that I have searched and looked up before. If I spell the name incorrectly, (as I often do as I’m a rubbish speller), Gruss au Achen for example all I get is the “We did not find any plants matching your search name” etc. I expect it is me doing something wrong!

If you searched for 'Gruss au Achen' as you spelt it, then the database sometimes will not find this incorrectly spelt rose. (Miraculously, sometimes it does.) Instead of searching with BEST MATCHES, try searching with CONTAINS, and just ask for one word, in this case either Gruss, or Aachen. Then you will have no problem.

Ah yes, that works, thank you Patricia.
Changing the subject, I just managed to order a plant of Rosa x micrgosa ‘Alba’ from Beales before they sell out (as they quickly do), I am very excited about this rose!

Andrew ... at the left of the SEARCH field, you will see an arrow for a drop down menu.
As Patricia suggested, you can search using BEGINS WITH, CONTAINS (my favorite) or ENDS WITH.
So for ‘Gruss an Aachen’, you could do any of the three following searches, or any variation as long as you have at least three characters ...
BEGINS WITH: Gruss an A
CONTAINS: s an A
ENDS WITH: chen
Of course, you can add or delete letters and don't have to do the exact searches I've listed above.

Climbing Lady Sylvia was the most amazing rose it was two storey's high and 10 feet across. I had previously fertilized for herbs than I dug a 2x2x2 hole and mixed manure with probably 1/ 2 a pound of fertilizer and some regular dirt. it had a unforgettable fragrance, was disease resistant and Bloomed and bloomed and bloomed. When I left that house, I thought I would still be able to order it by mail, but it is nowhere to be found in the US. Is it possible that someone could help me purchase it in Europe so that it could be quarantined so that I could wait the requisite amount of time and then bring it here???
