rosa "Monet"


rosa "Monet"

Bought this at Hampton Court on Saturday. My wife had seen this rose growing in Grace kelly's garden in Monaco.

Gorgeous! Looks similar to the ones in old Dutch flower paintings. We have a Rosa Gallica Mundi - also with a "Dutch" feel. Beautiful but doesn't last long. Supposedly named for Henry the Second's mistress (?).

I can see why you bought it! Most unusual colour.

I love to buy things you can relate too. My wife was excited when she saw this as she had seen it many miles away in Monaco, and she had mentioned how nice it was when she first saw it.

Gorgeous rose, it reminds me of the stripey jackets worn at Henley! Very flamboyant!
