Marie Pavie - Nur Mahal - White Pearl
Comments (13)Buff, good to hear you also have a new little White Pearl. I am grateful to Jeri for making this great little china more widely known. No, I do not deadhead any of my three 'Valentine' roses because they are all fully mature and there are way too many blooms to keep up with. If I only had one of them, and grew it in a pot, I'd probably clip the whole spent bloom cluster off at the base of the spent candelabra. Yes, 'Nur Mahal' is healthy for me here. But remember, I live in DFW, which is the relatively dry prairie (although we've been plenty wet lately), where we only get moderate amounts of humidity. Yes about my Gruss roses. They were beautiful, as always, in the earlier spring, but are nothing to get excited about right now. They will wow me again in the fall. That is typical of that rose. The name plate was ordered from GardenMarkers. They are not cheap, but they deliver a product equal to what you see at the better botanical gardens. Their website is at the link below. Here is a link that might be useful: GardenMarkers...See MoreSame issue as last year with Marie Pavie
Comments (17)Thank you all very much. Patricia, I'm happy to hear she grows out of it for you. I will do as you say and give her a boost. It's been in the mid to upper 80s here and about 60 or just under at night with NO rain - and none to speak of expected until June. It's reasonable that she's a little weaker after her bloom. She's had plenty of watering. It's interesting how I'm seeing that generally that seems to be the case with the roses I have. They're either getting ready to grow or just bloomed, cycling through. To my mind, BS looked at that way doesn't seem as bad. It's a by-product of growth - at least with the Teas, Chinas & Noisettes and, I guess, some other heat loving roses. Looking at it that way prevents me from panicking and saves the lives of many roses who don't know any better. Thanks again. Sherry...See MoreMarie Pavie & Marie Daly
Comments (8)I prefer Pavie, but Daley is very nice. I'd recommend partial shade for both, at least in hot to pretty warm climates. I've grown them in afternoon shade in PDX. Better color and longer lasting blooms. Both are very nice and I like Daley almost as much as Pavie. Useful, modest size, flexible, healthy, thornless, sweet fragrance--both. Pavie seems slightly more fragrant to my nose, but that could be imagination. Carol...See MoreMarie Pavie Speaks
Comments (33)Michael, what a lovely piece. My MP is such a beautiful bush until late summer. Then she gets BS, drops her leaves, refoliates, and blooms again. This all became apparent when I stopped spraying about 3 years ago. I know I should sp her, but I just cannot. She only looks ugly two to three weeks out of the summer. And her scent is heavenly. I would like to hear what some of your other roses have to say. Barbara...See Moreprairie-rose
