I received a catalogue from Fedco today. Fedco is a Maine seed, organic garden supply and nursery stock company. It is a customer owned cooperative and I am a (distinctly unimportant, I do assure you) member. The catalogue is Trees, Shrubs and Perennials for 2024, shipping to begin in the spring, I believe. There is about one and a half pages of roses being offered, most or all of which are sourced from Cornhill Nursery in Canada. I doubt the Fedco management has the time or inclination to list each of 16 cultivars, and if I do so, that will take up two or three pages of this forum.

The list is: 'Chloris', 'Canadian Sheild', 'Chinook Sunrise', 'Emily Carr', 'Stanwell Perpetual', 'Charles de Mills', 'Tuscany Superb', 'Blanc Double de Coubert', 'Hansaland', 'Max Graf', 'Moje Hammarberg', 'Wasagaming' R. Virginia. Two more are of special interest: 'Morden 6910' "Complex hybrid bred by Bret Harp of the Morden Res and Dev Center...Breeding records were closely guarded, so this one remains without a name." Fedco. cat referenced above, p. 48. Also there is a rarity from Georges Bugnet, breeder of 'Therese Bugnet', the rugosa 'Lac Majeau'.

Fedco has provided excellent descriptions for each cultivar. These can be viewed on their website fedcoseeds.com/trees. Order deadline is March 1, 2024, mail or online only, no fax, no phone orders.
