Souvenir de la Malmaison not flowering
Comments (30)It would have to be something as large as half a wine barrel, but I think it would be happier in the ground. I've never seen the climber, but the bush itself can get pretty large, so I imagine the climber will need even more room. Coincidentally, I find that I'm now having the same problem. I planted four tea roses in a row, and one of them is definitely not what I ordered, because it has two long canes with only leaves and no buds in sight, whereas the other three have all had buds or blooms and look the way a young tea rose should look. Since I don't know if the "fake" was bought as Marie van Houtte or Mlle. de Sombreuil, and they are from two different vendors, I can't even get my money back. It's not a totally bad thing since I didn't really have a spot for the Mlle. Franziska Krueger that is still in a pot, and this space will do nicely. It would have been nice to know which climber this is, but I doubt it will bloom until next year at the earliest, and meanwhile MFK will be too large for its pot....See MoreSouvenir de la Malmaison, and a couple of others
Comments (9)Thank you everyone. Kate, I've had SdlM for awhile and have enjoyed it. This spring was the first season it had that many buds and I was looking forward to seeing it in full bloom. Lavender, my SdlM has a light, pleasant scent. Kristine, I think some roses just have a way of winning us over, one like Plum Perfect would be a good example, it's a great rose....See MoreSOUVENIR de la MALMAISON and other stuff
Comments (8)I had SDLM. It suffered where I first planted it but it was a beautiful rose once I moved it to in front of my workshop where it got shelter and some warmth from the sun in the frigid winter. She stayed with me up to the -40F winter and then was no more. My first flowers of the season were very pale. Later ones picked up more color. If I remember she was very fragrant....See MoreRecent Souvenir de la Malmaison bloom
Comments (4)Such a lovely bloom! Hope you can supply side-by-side blooms of Malmaison and Mystic Beauty before long. I've often wondered how close they are in appearance. Supposedly MB is slightly pinker, but I don't know that for a fact. Kate...See Moreslumgullion in southern OR
