'Eau De Parfum™ Bling' rose Reviews & Comments

|
Prides Corner Farms is marketing this series into Flower Carpet, as well as a rose called Flower Carpet Orange. None of them groundcovers. I don't know if its a massive error or some new re-marketing.
Anthony Tesselaar Plants Pty. Ltd does not list any of these on their site. Ah, I see a new division.
Apparently they are under a new and distinctly different 'Flower Carpet Fragrant Shrub Roses' marketing.

I love the smell of confusion in the morning... ._.

In 2024 there were five roses in the Showpiece series. Anthony Tesselaar International is Noack's agent, and they leave the propagation to others. I grow several in the series and their upright growth would tend to preclude them from being called flower carpet roses. They were marketed as root grown which is not the norm in Oz.

I do think its a strange choice. They do seem to be adding a peach persica and a cherry red to their traditional lineup, so they're not abandoning it. But they also seem to making this new sub-category for upright roses with romantic form. I wish they would have just named that new lineup with something more relatable to the plant habit. It makes it more confusing, because now its yet another branding for the Showpiece/Eau de Parfum/Timeless/Voluptia line. Its REALLY hard educating normal gardeners about roses as it is. This does not help.

Roses don't meet the general expectation of "groundcovers" anyway: as far as I've tried them (which wasn't far) they don't suppress weed growth adequately, they're not nice to weed among, that's too far down for me to want to bend and sniff. There was a certain pleasure in thinking of following the advice to use a golfclub to deadhead them, but it didn't seem worth getting a golfclub for that.

I've seen basically 2(3) my whole life that actually hugged the ground tightly. I think you're right for 99% of the cases though. Nozomi, Green Snake, and Petit Serpent. (The latter two are related).

From the photos of Green Snake, I'd say it was well-named. Fangs.

I remember it from the old Heirlooms display gardens. I remember it looking oddly rubbery. Strange rose.

I like my Green Snake. Shiny, healthy foliage, never a spot of disease here in Black Spot Central. Granted it doesn't suppress weeds, but neither does it choke or overwhelm the other plants I grow through it, like zinnias, dahlias and Lady's Mantle. And it grows in shade.

I believe NOA16079 should be merged with NOA16071 Showpiece Lipstick.
The New Zealand Plant Variety Rights grant number 34868 says a commercial synonym for NOA16079 is Showpiece Lipstick.
Double checking before a merge.

Noa16071 and Noa16079 are distinct varietal names, and should not be merged. The only reason can be that Noack introduced a different rose as 'Showpiece Lipstick' in NZ, or that the synonym 'Showpiece Lipstick' is incorrect for Noa16071. The latter needs checking.

Australia PBR has NOA16079 as Showpiece Lipstick
pericles.ipaustralia.gov.au/pbr_db/plant_detail.cfm?AID=39362379
noack has Noa16071 as Charisma
noack-rosen.de/produkt/charisma/
if we go to the tesselaar marketing photos for the showpiece line
www.flickr.com/photos/tesselaar/albums/72157718483636093
specifically
www.flickr.com/photos/tesselaar/50993818772/in/album-72157718483636093/
and do a reverse image search
tinyurl.com/yckbnjre
we find that same image being used in europe for Crazy Pink Voluptia eg
www.roseraiebarth.com/fr/rosiers-a-grandes-fleurs/rosier-crazy-pink-voluptia-noa16071.html
different picture showpiece lipstick picture (from the tessellar link above) on the german adr website
www.adr-rose.de/adr-rosen/rose/charismar/
So either someone sent out Noa16071 photos for NOA16079 or NOA16079 is a typo or something. For whatever reason, the marketing photos are the same for both if they aren't the same rose.

Having said that (and because I don't want to edit the previous comment and get escaped html characters, so new comment)
The photo in the Australian PBR for NOA16079 (despite being listed as showpiece lipstick) doesn't look like the pictures on the tessellar site (or what people have posted as showpiece lipstick in australia rose facebook groups)...which is weird in itself. Maybe, Flower Carpet Pty Ltd (as the agent) did a goof and no ones noticed? The pbr photo looks more like showpiece blush, looking at the usa patent picture for showpiece blush show the darker petal base that's obvious on the australia pbr photo
www.helpmefind.com/rose/l.php?l=21.319066
the photo for blush on the australia pbr doesn't look like blush (pigment is too deep)....
pericles.ipaustralia.gov.au/pbr_db/plant_detail.cfm?AID=39362376
something goofy going on

What is clear is that if there are two different varietal names, these are distinct roses: So Noa16071 is not Noa16079, even though they may be similar or sister seedlings (very close numbers).
Noa16071 is clearly Charisma, syn. Crazy Pink Voluptia.
According to the Australian PBR Noa16079 is Showpiece Lipstick.
Photo confusion on nursery websites are not proof enough.

Even in the USA patent for NOA16079 uses the same images as is used for Charisma (NOA16071)....interesting paperwork either way since either the USA patent is using images for the wrong rose or the pictures used for Charisma (for german adr and such) aren't pictures of Charisma.

Honestly wouldn't be the first time. Poulsen made some booboos in the 1990s.
They clear because there are so few patent examiners for plants, and roses are considered niche.

I've been growing this for for 6 months from an already growing plant.
So far, I would consider this a larger flowered floribunda. However, it is quite healthy. All foliage is intact. It is probably a decent "HT-like" rose for huge pots, which might be a draw for some.
