This rose "Charles Mallerin" was named after the rose hybridizer Charles Mallerin (1876-1960). Charles was well known for breeding Hybrid Teas in yellow and yellow blend colors as well as bringing forth some of the first truly dark red Hybrid Teas such as "Sénégal" and "Congo."

I am having problems with Charles being very slow to rebloom, despite Red 'n Fragrant right next to him & the other unknown red HT's being very happy with water, spraying, fertiliser & mulch. There are no obvious issues, just general unhappiness & stinginess after his first flush. Should I play Musical Plants & move him?
