The rose bush received is not great (2 short branches and poorly pruned) planted in the ground, I'm now waiting for spring with hope for recovery...(or not?).

Description

The Large-Flowered René Goscinny® 'Meifrypon' Rose is a hybrid tea rose that captivates with the brilliance and opulence of its flowers, evoking the charm of old-fashioned roses while offering exceptionally continuous flowering. From late spring until the heart of autumn, it produces very large roses with warm, luminous hues that evolve over time. Their colour begins as a bright light orange before gradually developing vermillion orange tones on the petal edges, eventually tinting the entire flower. Its intense fragrance reminiscent of a fruity cocktail blending apricot, peach, and grapefruit, enhanced with hints of lime and rose, makes it a particularly cherished variety among lovers of scented roses. Perfectly balanced and well-ramified, it suits flower beds, borders, group planting, and cut flower arrangements alike.

The René Goscinny® 'Meifrypon' Rose belongs to the Rosaceae family and the hybrid tea or large-flowered rose category. It stands out for its exceptionally large rose, reaching 13 to 14 cm in diameter. Their dense structure formed of 80 to 90 petals arranged in quarters gives them a swirling, romantic appearance typical of old-fashioned flowers. Its flowering is remarkable for its abundance and continuity, offering constant renewal despite the impressive size of its blooms. The very dense bronze-green foliage elegantly complements the successive flowerings while ensuring excellent disease resistance. This vigorous yet compact rose reaches a height of 60 to 80 cm with a spread of about 50 cm, making it easy to incorporate into various landscape designs. Beyond its aesthetic appeal in the garden, its particularly long-lasting flowers make stunning cut flower displays, retaining their fragrance and intensity for several days after cutting. Awarded the Golden Rose of Geneva in 2001, it ranks among the most outstanding varieties from the Meilland house.

The René Goscinny® 'Meifrypon' Rose will naturally finds its place in borders or flowerbeds where its flamboyant flowering will bring warmth and light to the garden. It pairs ideally with other romantic roses, particularly those with pastel tones for a delicate contrast, or with taller roses in the background for a gradual volume enhancement. Its fruity colouring will also blend with yellow, orange, or vermillion-red perennials such as daylilies, crocosmias, or coneflowers which enhance its luminous effect while creating a harmony of warm tones. To soften its brilliance, it can be planted alongside light grasses like stipas, adding movement and textural contrast to the floral display. Its abundant flowering attracts pollinators and ensures a renewed spectacle from spring to autumn, making it an essential choice for ornamental gardens.

Planting and care

To plant your René Goscinny rose, prepare the soil by digging a 25 cm cube, breaking up the earth well and adding a base fertiliser such as dried blood or dehydrated horn at the bottom of the planting hole. Place your plant after removing it from its pot, covering the top of the root ball with 3 cm of soil, backfill and water thoroughly to eliminate any air pockets. In dry weather, water regularly for a few weeks to encourage root establishment. Also remember to feed your rose with a special rose fertiliser to promote flowering. Choose a sunny spot, or partial shade in very hot regions.
