Alas, mine died in its super-hot spot, but yours is really lovely. The close-up pictures especially are to die for. This rose reminds me of a noisette I do have, Mrs. Woods Lavender Pink Noisette in terms of shape of the blooms, except that my rose is a deeper lavender pink.

Thanks for posting these lovely pictures.

A couple observations on this rose: It appears to be identical to what we grow as "Morgan Spring," another found name for a found rose by Frances Grate. Also, this is a rose that Liz Druitt recommended putting on your head, early in the morning, then wearing a hat over it for a while, to develop a powerful myrrh fragrance. It only works in the morning. Finally, while this rose is called a Noisette, and I certainly don't have a better suggestion for a class for it, I would say that its growth habit is quite unlike that of any other rose I've ever grown -- those huge, open panicles of flowers with the extra-long pedicels. I wish there were some truly comparable other varieties.

That's good to hear, as she looks like she will be so pretty when mature. In the pot she blooms only a few at a time, but I think has been putting energy into growing. She was a band last fall and is now about 1 1/2 ft. by 1 1/2 ft. Does she grow more wide than tall? The other question I have is will she do better if in partial shade, or will she do fine in full sun?

Very lovely, Audrey, but your Gaura needs to move. Mine really takes up some real estate by the end of summer, and I would think it will come back for you next year. By then NN will be at least 4' wide (and getting bigger). Gaura gets about 3' wide here and 3-1/2' tall. I love it!!

Very beautiful rose indeed! I like that you combined it with what looks to me like a gaura. The blooms of both plants compliment each other very well!

bellegallica, I detect a faint smell, but my nose could be broken :-)

Ingrid, I must check out Mrs. Woods Lavender Pink Noisette. Nothing wrong with adding more of a good thing, right?

Sherry, thanks for the heads-up about the Gaura. Funny that you mentioned them coming back larger next year (I picked them up at the Lowe's annual aisle). Go figure!

Florence, Christina, and Krista, I can't wait for my baby specimen to grow LARGER! I wonder if Spring Fever has hit me? LOL

Thanks for looking everyone!

Audrey, bringing up this post again. Would love to hear how your CPC, BN and NN are doing..
I purchansed the book Noisette Roses - 19th Century Charleston's Gift to the World. For a beginner like me, its a great book. Somebody mentioned it on the forum and I made a smart buy from my smart phone right away :) I have not finished reading yet, got it yesterday in the mail.
