Mrs Paul

Mrs Paul, Paul 1891

Bourbon, Cl. Bourbon 

Seedling of Mme Isaac Pereire 

A cracking rose this daughter of the famous Mme Isaac Pereire. 
Mrs Paul looks very much like her aunt, the Mme Isaac Pereire sport, Mme Ernest Calvat.
Flesh pink with darker pink center, big, quartered blooms. She has a moderate to strong typical Bourbon fragrance. When fully open the blooms gets puffy and her stamen can be seen. 

It's slightly less vigorous than Pereire and Calvat but still she's best grown as a small climber against a wall or obelisk. 150X100 cm but certainly 200 cm against a wall (6 feet)

Foliage is big and coarse just like most Bourbons. Health is good and she repeats just like her mother and aunt. Zone 5b to 9b

If you love Mme Isaac Pereire, Mme Ernest Calvat, Florence Ducher and Malmaison then Mrs Paul is your cuppa tea
