Creator: Lacharme, France, 1861Flowers: 8 cm
Height: 3 m
Lacharme François (1817-1887) a rose breeder eminent from the city of Lyons, produced a remarkable collection of roses that still today one can find in some catalogs: "Coquette des Blanches" (1871), "Van Houte Louise" (1869), "Lady Emily Peel "(1862);" Coquette des Alpes "(1867) and" D'Arzens Louise "(1861).
Fortunately this rose came back into fashion and is currently very popular, mainly due to its flowers, very double, white with creamy shades in the center, slightly fragrant. The buds are of a strong pink color, and the plant is robust, with shiny green foliage.
It takes several years to reach3m height. Plus bare in mind that this rose is not adequate to develop along an arch due to the characteristics of its branches, which grow in a disorderly order. In my experience I consider the "Louise D'Arzens," an ideal rose to be developed as a shrub rose, thus being submitted annually to the appropriate pruning.
