'Duchesse d'Istrie' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

All descendants in later generations than the first are from: 12-59-10 (moss hybrid, Moore 1959)
Pinocchio x William Lobb
I wonder why the others weren't used.

Fertility most likely. He did use them, but they never wound up into his lineages (with the exception of Orange Moss)
I heard it, on it's own merit, is actually a fair rose. It also passed down repeat "reliably", the others always threw some once-bloomers, and mixed well with china/wich/polyantha based mini genes

Or rather, it is in the modern mosses only because fate dictated that it made Fairy Moss, a key parent. No other significant f1's.

ARDluna and Princesse de Parme are looking good. And the first-one is very disease-resistant too!
I'm curious, what my own William Lobb seedling will do.

of course I knew when I planted it that it was spring-only, but it seems to have short flower-life and a short flowering season in my garden. Is that the experience of others?

It is interesting you say that Margaret because I grow this rose as a climber together with 'Aschermittwoch' and I was slightly disappointed that they do not flower together for a longer time although it was very hot and dry in June. 'Mousseux du Japon' was similar, my disappointment being greater because it is such an ugly rose as well.

In a bit cooler year, it flowers for weeks in a row (a month as one might see looking at my photo's of this rose made in 2015) in my garden... And yes, the flowers last just a few days, whilst changing color.
This year almost no flowering due to the storm-damage.

Too hot a climate here, perhaps. I've realised the rose books are right: Centifolia muscosa is the best moss.

I photographed an inflorescence on November 21. I hope to remember to photograph it progressively over the next fortnight or so. But it is still cool here and I gather hot there.

No, we've had one nasty hot day and then wind, hail and RAIN. Still cool for the next week. But I don't think Wm Lobb will flower for more than a fortnight, and Laneii doesn't look as if it will do much better.

What about 'Nuits de Young' if you wanted a dark moss rose?

Thanks for the suggestion. Alas, it's not time for me to increase the number of roses I grow!
