Has anyone ever tried to import a bush? I love a rose bush

that is in Britain. I know there is a "quarantine the bush for a period of time to ensure it is dangerous to these parts" but us ut still even possible?

Here is the bush: https://www.rhsplants.co.uk/plants/_/rosa-mum-in-a-million-poulren013-pbr/classid.2000017678/

noticed it is close to a 144 peddle. There is a Nursery in Maine who used to specialize in Heirloom Roses especially these Queen Elizabeth Varieties.

Sorry,do not remember the name. Portland area close to the down east area. We had fantastic luck with their Plants. Use a google search and their Web Site used to be pretty much fail safe.

Search for Antique Pink Roses.

similar hybrid teas, grandifloras, polyanthas, shrub roses (especially David Austins) that you could easily find or mail order here. I'd suggest looking at Help Me Find Roses website to find something similar.
