Opinions on PRINCESS CHARLENE DE MONACO

5 years ago

Not that I need to order anymore roses, but I still love looking. I don’t know why, maybe it’s the color, PRINCESS CHARLENE de MONACO really caught my eye. For those who have it, or know about it, what is your opinion?

Sara Ann , I think you’ll love this rose . Now mine needed to grow , it cane very small from I think edmunds , so it did grow a lot and bloomed a few times . I was very happy with it all things considered . I think Lisa absolutely raved about hers and I had to have it . It was really healthy , had a great fragrance and lovely color! I’ll look for pictures but can’t promise one unless I’m positive that’s what I’m looking at . I did not label and thought I may rely on my memory?! Lol

That's hilarious Lily. I'm currently arranging my phone pics and at least there are some markers to help with ID, but WHY didn't I put my ARE ID tags so I could read the rose names instead of ARE? LOL! It's amazing how much roses can look alike.

Hi. Does anyone grow this rose? I got one from edmunds and realized it's on its own roots, which is nice as dr H is no good here. I have her in a pot but am thinking of adding her to the garden, but only if she's healthy. Any info would be appreciated.

Hmmm. Ok interesting. Thanks! This one is a total water guzzler in my area then. Since this is new to the market....Hot and dry (usually dry) climates beware.... this one may possibly need some protection from a lot of dry heat and may need a lot of water for drought areas. Even with all of our rain in CA... this one is my only rose that has cried out for additional water. Seems as though it's worth it though! Dry climates just may need to find the right spot for this one for it to flourish.

Very new in my yard, but I would give it afternoon shade for sure. It's not holding up well to the heat in my yard so far. Here is a thread with good info on it... http://forums2.gardenweb.com/discussions/3901490/princess-charlene-of-monaco-super-fragrant-rosy-surprise

I thought PCdM was supposed to be short when I got mine and planted it in front of a bed. It grew to about 6 ft by end of season that first year (but stayed very narrow), so I moved it last year (its second) to a different bed. Here are a couple of full bush shots from early May this year...that's a six foot fence behind it. I hard pruned it last year and this year to encourage it to get bushier and that has helped. It still gets taller than the fence by end of season, but is a bit fuller. These pictures don't do it justice...much prettier rose in person

Thank you, Lilyfinch, sounds like it could be a good one, the fact that it’s fragrant is very appealing. Would love to see a picture if possible, but definitely don’t want you to go to a lot of trouble.

I was hoping I wild see a figurine or nearby plant as a marker but no luck ! I did a horrible job last year . Oyyyyy. Next year I may put markers even though I don’t love the look and I do remember them by name as a whole , it stinks I can’t share so many photos! Or maybe my iPhone will become super smart and sort them for me ?! If it can track everything else I do , surely it can know my rose names too ;)
