P.T. Me about'Guirlande d'Amour' Lens rose
Comments (1)Lux - it is truly a great rose! Mine forms a huge dense shrub-rose - about 8 feet tall and 6 feet wide (arching umbrella - shape) - after a few years it will be self supporting. Due to my location this far North in Europe it only manages 2 bloom cycles - but I believe it could finish 3 flushes in a warmer climate. It does bloom in flushes - with the new growth flowering in between. In many ways it reminds me of pure white version of Ghislaine De Feligonde. It is very sweetly scented and the scent carries on air so it can be smelled from a distance, Like other white roses it looks great in the nights too. And Just to tease you a bit - shouldn't this have been posted in the roses section? And not in the Antique ...? According to your post about Austins .... ;-)...See More2004 OGR Victorian Rose List

Comments (0)Have been looking and looking for this rose and cannot find it. Hope someone can help. I can offer a large potted Mme Louis Leveque, which I can cut down and unpot into a bag to ship, a small Chas. de Mills. Would be happy to dig up two year old o.w. Blaiiri No. 2 or Awakening (still a bit small. May have a found rose believed to be Common Moss cutting rooted in spring. Could send non-rooted cuttings of close to 75 ogr and older, out-of-patent roses. HELP. If you know where one can be gotten elsewhere, please let me know....See Moreguirlande d'amour rose Vs MAC.

Comments (12)I've never grown Guirlande de Amour, but going by HMF, it's half the potential size of MAC. Do you want it to reach the railing and then grow along it, or just get that tall and no more? If you intend for your rose to grow horizontally at the balcony level, then MAC is the way to go. Mine was easily 25' tall in a red cedar tree before the Polar Vortex several years ago. I lost it when the temps hit -10F. It was healthy, not spotless, but nearly so, and I never, ever sprayed it (ever tried spraying something 25 feet over your head? I don't recommend it, lol). MAC doesn't mind a little shade, so should do quite well until it can reach full sun. MAC also has an interesting scent. I've never been quite able to describe it. It's pleasant, not overpowering. I read somewhere it has hints of elder flower?? GdA looks like a lovely rose, and being a musk hybrid probably smells wonderful. And HMF says it's "very disease resistant". But I can speak of MAC from experience, and it was a good one. She's a classic for a reason. Edit: I forgot to say...you mentioned Veilchenblau. I know it only blooms once, but it's totally healthy for me, and that purple would be gorgeous against the white walls! Plant it at one end, and MAC at the other, lol. Boom! Best of both worlds....See Morebayarea_girl_z10a_ca
