This Madame Plantier rose was already in my garden for years when I bought the house. It was approx. 8 -10 ft. high with a fountain shape. It is nearly thornless & exceptionally fragrant. Blooms once for a long period of time. Very hardy & thrives under difficult conditions, even partial shade. Almost completely disease-resistant & requires little pruning. I only pruned it back to 5-6 ft. this winter to make it bushier, but do not plant on pruning it again.
It smells wonderful!
