Ann Endt source

General Discussion

Is there a US or Canadian nursery that sources Anne Endt?

I’m sure there are members here who grow it. Hopefully, they’ll see the request and you’ll be able to propagate it from them.

When I looked I could only find Heirloom Roses selling it in the US for $50. It’s out of stock but that might change next month when things typically get re-stocked for the year. I think they periodically do 25-50% off sales if you don’t want to pay so much for a single plant.

I am also looking for it and only found via Heirloom

Heirloom Roses is no longer offering ‘Ann Endt’.

They were the only nursery I knew of to carry it.

I’d be interested in acquiring her as well.

I have private messaged and emailed the last three gardens I have evidence of having grown Ann Endt, with no response from any of them. I have arranged, for those interested, for bud wood to be made available to Wisconsin Roses this summer to bud Ann Endt2, a self seedling of Ann Endt 'Ann Endt²' Rose. Steve Singer at Wisconsin Roses buds to seedling mulitflora and sends out maidens, started eye budded plants either late fall this year or spring next year, depending upon your climate and the condition of the maidens. Information about his maidens and what you need to do to grow them is here. https://wiroses.com/ See “What is a Maiden?”; “How to grow them.” and “How to order” in the center of the home page.

If you’re interested in obtaining a budded plant of Ann Endt2, you will need to place an order with Wisconsin Roses at the above web site. Steve is aware of the possible requests will let the person supplying the bud wood know what’s required. They will supply the bud wood when they send in all other bud wood they will supply for other needs. Wisconsin Roses will contact you when your plant is availalble and payment required. I hope this helps.

If anyone discovers a source for the original Ann Endt, please feel free to share!

Peter Schneider at Freedom Gardens grows it. He offers it as a custom propagation.

Great! Thanks, Mike. Ironically, two of the three people I emailed and messaged responded today. One has one weak shoot of the plant left and hopes to move it to coddle it back into growth. The other lost it two years ago but reported he obtained it from Rogue Valley Roses. They didn’t have it listed, but he called them and they had it. So, whatever your pleasure is, go for it!

Not really being familiar with either rose nor any progeny, I am curious… What would be the hypothetical merits to using Ann Endt over, for instance, Basye’s Purple?

I don’t have either but I’ve read that the appeal of Basye’s Purple is that it is strikingly dark throughout the whole plant, and the appeal to Ann Endt is that it maintains great form and health without much intervention.

Basye’s Purple is super unique but hands on, Ann Endt is somewhat unique but hands off.
