The Coop Rose

The Coop Rose is...

A rose, originally called the Portland Rose, made for the 1905 Portlands World's fair. It was considered extinct until it was found in 2012, at my great grandparents farm. I am a hobby genealogist and have taken on propagating this Beautiful old rose because of it's family connection. Wish me luck!

Eleanor Roosevelt

"I once had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalog: no good in a bed, but fine up against a wall."

Abraham Lincoln

"We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorn bushes have roses."
