Clothilde Soupert

Clothilde Soupert, Soupert et Notting 1888

Polyantha 

Caroline X Madame Damaizin (Tea) 

An old favorite to so many people. In America you can still find her at cemeteries because of her rounded, short growth and prolific blooming all summer long. But also as a garden rose she's well loved and there are many reasons why 

Quartered or rosette shaped, very double blooms in flesh pink with darker pink center. They stand in clusters on a dense rounded shrub of 100X100 cm or 3X3 feet. She reminds us of roses such as Félicité Parmentier. But she has Safrano blood so her beauty comes from the best.

She doesn't like wet and damp summers, she likes warm and dry. Good health although maybe some mildew but nothing serious. Zone 5b to 9b. Flushes freely throughout the season. Only left to say she's deliciously fragrant. 

A rose very well worthy to grow 

Little White pet

Little White pet, Henderson 1879

Polyantha 

Sport of Félicité et Perpétué

A classic, countless sprays of little white Pompon blooms. No fragrance. They appear non stop from late spring to autumn. The blooms seems to float in the air. 100X70 cm. Nice rounded shrub. Zone 6b to 9b

Can be used as a hedge, border rose, tree rose and pots 

Perle d'or

Perle d'or, Rambaux 1875, introduced by Dubreuil

Polyantha 

An outstanding polyantha rose and still very popular. How can it not with the famous Tea Mme Falcot as a parent. Perle d'or has many features of her famous parent: Exquisite formed buds unfolding into old fashioned tea shape flowers. The color is apricot with light pink undertone which makes the blooms look like gold when they are young. Strong tea fragrance.

Bushy growth, quite arching up to 125 cm, the branches are almost thornless. Light green healthy foliage.

Idéal for pots and standard roses but also for the border. A beautiful little gem 💎

Good to know is that the daughter of Dubreuil married Antoine Meilland. She would later become immortal when the most famous rose of the 20th century was named after her: Mme A Meilland or Peace
