All marwas are grown from seeds. 100 seeds may produce 20 different types of Marwas. There are about 50 Marwas in one section of our golf club, I see flowers of different size and shape. Petals of some are straight and of some curled back. They even do not flower at the same time.
A bird planted one in my garden. It is 3 years old. The flowers are smallest of all I have seen, but the fragrance is most intense and it is blooming repeatedly.
I intend to propagate it by cuttings.
What was your reason for paying so much for those plants?

no worries... most of us had experience that kind of "dhoka" by the nurserymen in our country...

AY Khan sb these type of dhokas are common perctice with shoqeen people.thats why i only go to selected nurseries.if they can meet my requirment i purchase other wise i dont even visit others for the specific plants.same is the case with pet shops.i only purchase pets from my time tested pet shops.AY Khan sb if u want true to the type roses visit DR nursery,Patokki.i use to purchase roses from thier Islamabad br,Fateh Muhammad Nursry.their cell no is Mr Obaid 03015056044.the second person from whom i purchase roses is Rehmat Watoo,Allah tawakal nursery,RWP.i do not even visit others for roses.its because i trust them.they never provided me a wrong stuff for the last 10 years
