<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Still today this is one of the best-selling climbers around the world. <br />It is a very floriferous rose and spreads easily. This rose produces dark coral buds that open into very fragrant light pink folded flowers, with little disordered thin petals, flowering in groups of three to seven.<br />The bush is very vigorous and has abundant glossy green foliage. Thanks to its strong thorny branches, this rose is suitable for climbing trees or large shrubs.<br />Sometimes it needs to be protected against attacks of mildew, in the year in which this disease is to be feared. Reportedly Barbier intended to honor the memory of Marcel Proust (1871-1922), but another rose breeder anticipated him, by assigning the name of this famous writer to one of his creations. <br />So Barbier decided to name this rose after one of the heroines of the famous novel. "In Search of the Lost Time." Apart from this, Barbier’s family was responsible for one of the most impressive sets of Hybrid Wichurana ever being produced. The "Barbier et Cie" was founded in 1875 and the process of trade expansion was fast and consistent.<br />Curiously, for several years, Barbier’s were seen by the public as a reputable nursery trade and production of fruit trees, and were not even considered proficient rose breeders, but later turned out to be. In 1890 René Barbier imported the "Rose Whichurana" from the United States and in its first crossings, he proved to be a talented hybridizer, able to produce the “Alberic Barbier”, “Elisa Robichon”, “Francois Foucard","Paul Transon" and" Rene Barbier. " wichuranas roses<br />The flowers of these new hybrids were generally larger and more dazling than the U.S. roses and had then produced a wider variety of colors. Most climbers produced by Barbier resulted from crossing with tea roses, in particular the "Souvenir de Catherine Guillot" responsible for seven of its most successful wichuranas "Moulla Adelaide", "Alexander Tremouillet", "Edmond Proust" "Guichard", "Leontine Gervais", "Pinson" and "Valentin Beaulieu."<br />Almost all the roses produced by Barbier still exists today and have excellent qualities: they are lively, flexible, healthy and have a good flowering.</span></div>

<br /><span style="font-family: inherit;">This rose is very difficult to classify: for some it is a hybrid of "R. Multiflora ", for others it results from a happy crossing between" R.

The tiny flowers in perfect pompons, appear in clusters, with a mix of pink and white, very attractive. The bright green foliage is exceptional.<br />It is unclear who the person who wanted to honor Laffay was, but it may possible to have been a relative of Marshal of the Louis Empire - Nicolas Davout (1770-1823).</span></div>Miguel Albuquerquehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05699029996798732923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5417587706455974103.post-11883946157353343302011-10-21T13:48:00.000-07:002011-10-21T13:50:06.044-07:00<span style="color: #274e13; font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><strong>Variegata di Bologna - <em>Bourbon Rosebush</em></strong></span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">The flowers of this rose have a subtle special pink color, one of the most beautiful I know. This rose is darker in the center of the flower and gradually evolves into a lighter color with reflections of white outer petals. The flowers are very bent, however ending up in an almost flat profiling. It is definitely not one of the most known gallicas. It is not even a lush plant. Flowering is delayed. And the flowers usually appear alone. <br />However and in spite of not having an exuberant character, this rose has a special distinction, able to satisfy the real connoisseurs</span></div>Miguel Albuquerquehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05699029996798732923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5417587706455974103.post-65726747315045803372011-10-18T06:36:00.000-07:002011-10-18T06:48:59.195-07:00<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><strong><span style="color: #274e13;">Victor Emmanuel - <em>Bourbon Rose</em></span></strong></span><br />

The flowers, quite fragrant, are filled with numerous petals of a bright pink color and the bush is vigorous and compact, disposing of healthy thorny foliage that is rarely attacked by mildew.

Quite imposing, this rose disposes of semi folded flowers and has a spices fragrance. These roses are bright red enhanced by golden stamens and a white center, with clearer lists on the reverse of the petals. The flowers appear in groups of ten to twenty-five against a backdrop of dense bright green foliage.<br />"Nur Mahal" is a tribute from Pemberton to the powerful woman of India´s Emperor Jahangir, to whom legend attributed the discovery of the famous " rose smell."</div>Miguel Albuquerquehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05699029996798732923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5417587706455974103.post-18131387759126484462011-10-14T02:14:00.000-07:002011-10-14T02:14:45.870-07:00<span style="color: #d5a6bd;"><strong><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;">Miranda - <em>Portland Rose</em></span></span></strong></span><br />

This rosebush is still widely grown in Italy. It was introduced by Henri Corrévon, a Swiss rose breeder, who called it "Ideale type". <br />
This rose is suitable for hot and temperate climates where it never stops blooming. The flowers change color in a surprising way: first, yellow and orange suede, then pink, fainting into purple later on. The petals, very elegant, assume multifaceted contours, equally gracious. <br />
"Utabilis" can be grown as a bush or a creeper. In some regions in Italy, it is used as a hedge as well.Miguel Albuquerquehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05699029996798732923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5417587706455974103.post-90647976118656624892011-09-24T14:18:00.000-07:002011-09-24T14:18:31.445-07:00<div style="color: #c27ba0;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Russelliana - <i>Hybrid Multiflora Rosebush</i></span></b></div><br />

This rose, rambler type, produces small flowers that color varies between a strong purple and a mauve pink color, which differs as they bloom. Individually the small flowers are not pretty, but as they come in large groups and open almost simultaneously, the mass effect they produce is truly spectacular. It is a "rambler" quite floriferous, ideal for a pergola or an arc, which blossom last only four weeks, stands out in any garden.Miguel Albuquerquehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05699029996798732923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5417587706455974103.post-58145225473590671202011-09-24T14:14:00.000-07:002011-09-24T14:16:52.256-07:00<div style="color: #d5a6bd;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Common Moss - <i>Moss Rose</i></span></b></div><br />

This is the moss rose that was highly cultivated in the 18th century and was able to resist the weather. It is an erect and dense shrub, with medium green size leaves, slightly serrated. The flowers appear in late spring, with a rich pink color, being very folded and fragrant, with the bowls and flower stalks exhaling a fragrant moss scent.Miguel Albuquerquehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05699029996798732923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5417587706455974103.post-63221957166792126132011-09-22T02:09:00.000-07:002011-09-22T02:09:42.216-07:00<div style="color: #ead1dc;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Minnehaha - <i>Hybrid Wichurana Rose</i></span></b></div><div style="color: #ead1dc;"><br />

This rose is a true show of color and joy. The small rosy red, flowers are fragrant and quite folded, coming in stunning bunches. The small dark green leaves, typical of wichuranas, contribute to enhance the exuberance of flowering.

In hot or temperate climates this rose produces flowers continuously, being a shame that it is not better known.<br />
The flowers are fragrant, quite folded into four distinct sections and it has a subtle color, a mix of rosy red color and white. This rose can be planted in a pot of medium size.<br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Introduced in 1929, this rose was certainly one of the most widely grown roses in the world, in the 30´s of last century. About forty mutations of "Talisman" were extensively marketed either as plants or as garden roses. "Talisman" was much appreciated by rose breeders and florists, for its regular abundant flowering that flourishes until the end of autumn. The beautiful double flowers are of a unique yellow-orange color, quite elegant and fragrant, blooming singly in the end of the wide branches, covered by medium green foliage. <br />
As matter of fact, one can say that this rose is “predictable and reliable”, hence its commercial success in the past.</span></div>Miguel Albuquerquehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05699029996798732923noreply@blogger.com
