Moss Roses
Some of the plants will make very large shrubs and should be tied to an H-shaped trellis to form a pleasing shape. Other moss shrubs are large but upright and may be kept in line with a stake at the center of the bush.
Alfred de Dalmas, Mousseline (1855) Reblooms
Would you believe I grow Alfred in a container? The plant is ideal for an oak barrel. The growth is low with dense foliage. The blooms are a creamy blush with a pink tint on occasion. They are cupped and fragrant. There are many short stems and few prickles.

‘Mousseline’/syn ‘Alfred de Dalmas’ (Ch. Testu = «Il n’est pas certain que ce synonyme soit authentique. J’ai lu, en effet, sur un catalogue édité en 1928, une description de ‘Alfred de Dalmas’ sensiblement différente de celle de ‘Mousseline’ donnée ici.») = Rosiers mousseux. Obtention Portermer en 1855 (?), Moreau-Robert en 1881 (?), Laffay en 1855 (?). De juin à octobre éclosent les fleurs d’un ivoire carné, en forme de coupe, bien pleines et avec le centre dégagé. Les folioles ont une forme particulière, «en cuiller», la végétation est compacte, les aiguillons presque rares, et la mousse peu abondante.
