Perle d'Or
Perle d'Or is a small old garden rose with strong fragrance and repeat bloom. Earth-Kind notes make it a practical candidate where a smaller shrub is wanted.
Growing notes
Earth-Kind notes caution against keeping it too wet, which matters in containers and humid gardens. In colder zones, verify local survival before relying on it as a permanent shrub.
What to photograph
- Whole plant from several feet away, including support or container.
- A fresh bloom and an older bloom.
- Leaf upper and lower surfaces.
- Cane base, graft or own-root shoots if visible.
- Any disease, mite, herbicide, or RRD-like symptoms with dates and weather context.
Common cautions
- Useful where fragrance can be enjoyed close up.
- Give it enough space despite its smaller class.
- Match advice to region, root system, and rose class before pruning or treating.
- Use Regional Rose Care Tips and local extension or RHS guidance for climate-specific adjustments.
