Madame Lauriol de Barny

Madame Lauriol de Barny, Trouillard 1868

Bourbon

Only this rose is capable of rivaling Mme Isaac Pereire as the most beautiful Bourbon and its very strange she's not more popular. In the UK she's a star at Sissinghurst gardens and Mottisfont Abbey.
Big, quartered, light pink rosettes with a strong fruity fragrance. Repeats well in Autumn. A very vigorous rose 250 X 150 cm or 12X10 feet and ideal for fences, arches, Obelisks, pergola's. Health is remarkably good. Look for her, do an effort and search for her and give her a prime sunny spot in your garden. Zone 5b to 10b so yes she's very heat resistant too. An old grande dame from times past. Time to get her back!
