I know Roses Unlimited has own root Austins..You might google them..also Northland Rosarium has own root roses..I have lady. She is wonderful

I looked everywhere myself without success -- Rogue Valley and Heritage in addition to those you tried.

I finally broke down and ordered it direct from Austin (therefore grafted), but I'm guessing Zone 4 won't allow that. Sorry I don't have better news.

Oh I'm sorry...you said you tried RU. Dang.

Grafted Austins are not bad for the north. Sometimes they're better because the rootstock is more hardy and vigorous than the rose. That also means you may get a headstart on growth and establishment in our short growing seasons.

If you're worried about the bud union freezing, make sure to plant it about 4-6" below ground. I always try to go for 6" deep. Pickering has Austins grafted on multiflora, if that makes a difference to you.

Just plant the bud union deep, as Veilchen says, the rose will own-root itself. Austins are really good about doing that. A wonderful rose, mine has 3 flowers on it already and they have a sweet strong citrus fragrance.

Hi Everyone, thank you for responding. I contacted Roses Unlimited and they replied that David Austin has not released Lady Emma Hamilton yet. They have stock and are hoping that the rose will be released soon.
