Rosier grimpant liane Jean Honoré Mus

The Jean Honoré Mus rose is an abundant, large rose that can easily exceed 5m in height. With its long, flexible stems, abundant flowering, and dense foliage, it can adorn pergolas, arches, and walls, adding a very romantic touch to the garden. Its large, delicately scented, creamy-white flowers create a magnificent display in spring and autumn. This is a robust, vigorous, continuously flowering, and easy-to-grow liana rose.

The Jean Honoré Mus® 'Meibeljenb' liana rose was developed by Maison Meilland in 2013 and named in May 2022 in honour of the renowned garden designer Jean Mus, a celebrated master gardener known for his naturalistic creations and preference for plants suited to their medium. This rose belongs to the liana rose group characterised by exceptional vigour and the ability to cover large areas. It is also known by the synonyms Looping® and Perle Crescendo®. ​

This rose has a climbing habit and flexible growth capable of reaching a height of 5 to 7m or even more, with a spread of 3.5m and beyond. Its long, flexible, thorny stems enable it to cling easily to supports such as pergolas, trees, or walls. ​grouped in clusters of 2 to 5, the semi-double flowers measure around 12cm in diameter and feature 25 to 30 slightly ruffled petals. These flat-corolla flowers reveal a golden-yellow stamen centre at full bloom, attracting bees and other pollinators. Their creamy-white colour is tinged with ivory and pink depending on climate conditions. Their fragrance is light. The Jean Honoré Mus liana rose offers early and prolonged flowering from May-June, lasting 4 to 6 weeks, followed by occasional reblooming in summer. The reflowering in October-November is particularly noteworthy. The abundant and elegant foliage is tinged with intense bronze at its juvenile stage before turning a glossy dark green. It is deciduous foliage that falls in autumn and regrows in spring. This rose is very healthy and highly resistant to diseases. The stems are thorny, which is typical of many climbing roses.

This Jean Honoré Mus® climbing rose spreads gracefully, covering pergolas, old walls, and trees with masses of flowers and can find its place in romantic gardens. For companions, one might for example choose a white wisterias (Wisteria floribunda 'Alba'), with, at its base, a row of deep blue 'Rozanne' perennial geraniums that will extend its flowering until autumn. In a rustic yet sophisticated style, this rose will pair beautifully with an Italian 'Étoile Violette' Clematis .
