Westfield Star

Does anyone on here grow the rose Westfield Star or know of where one grows? It's a white sport of Ophelia and thus related to Lady Sylvia and Madam Butterfly but is the only one of the group I cannot find. I have been searching for years.

It seems pretty obscure. Are you in the UK?

Yes I am. It originated in the 1920s I think and in the UK. David Austin used to list it about twenty five years ago. The only place I have found that sells it is in the States but they cannot export it. I am just hoping someone on here either grows it or knows an old garden where it is grown.

Just to clarify..Rosa Westfield Star?

Discovered in 1922 by Henry Morse....a sport of Ophelia.

Ophelia is a beautiful pink.

RHS do not have a note of anyone in UK selling it.

I grow all three of the others and love them, Ophelia in particular. It has a beautiful perfume too. But I so want to complete the collection!
