Black Prince (William Paul 1866), Souvenir du Docteur Jarmin

MinaLoy

Hello,

A while ago I received some helpful advice here so now I'm back for more... Since up until now I have chosen all our roses, I agreed with my partner that when I place my bare root order this winter he can choose a rose (how generous of me!) He has requested something dark 'black/crimson'

Our other roses are either Austins, or antique (Souvenir de la Malmaison, Comte de Chambord) and I want something that fits in with these, not a modern-shaped rose. We already have a Munstead Wood but were hoping for something a little less purple in tone.

Anyway, I stumbled across 'Black Prince' on the website of the nursery I'm planning to order from, but I can't find much information about it online. Does anyone have any experience of it and would they recommend it? Souvenir du Docteur Jarmin also looks beautiful but probably too big, the rose would need to live in a pot for the next year or two.

We live in Tuscany, Italy, so a mild climate with hot, dry summers. We can be flexible about its position - all day sun, or just morning or just afternoon.

Thanks! Katie
