'Parfuma Earth Angel' rose Reviews & Comments

As an own root, this rose is very vigorous and healthy for me. I've had it about a year, planted it in one location last fall, and then decided to move it a few months later. After a few months of settling into its new location, it has grown canes about four feet tall and currently has two new basal canes coming up. It put out about five flowers this summer, which were all lovely and perfectly formed. And it has zero black spot in my humid South Carolina garden where almost everything has black spot. It's a great garden plant!

I have an own-root plant and it's doing great. I have moved it twice, and it has cheerfully tolerated it. Now that it's been in the same place for 2+ years, it's really settling in and throwing long canes.
That distinctive shape of the flowers, almost peony-like, requires some establishment. I finally got that look from the blooms this year, after it had settled in for a couple years.

Honestly, no, but its blooms haven't really coincided with any periods of serious rainfall. We have had some cold, wet springs up here in Minneapolis, but my blooms come later in mid-June at the earliest, so by then things have been warmer and drier. If I have any news on that front this year, I'll be sure to weigh in.
The Japanese beetles do really like it, however...sigghhhhh...

Gave up on this rose - constantly balling up - over 70% of blooms failed to open. Looked great at Kordes in Germany - but one of the worst roses for balling up. We don't get much rain, and humidity is not high, but this thing was a soggy looking mess most of the time. Mild marine climate, 25" rain, rarely below 32F 0 deg C, but this thing was a failure. Nice fragrance, vigorous, but a waste of garden space.

I can confirm this rose is VERY vigorous as an own-root plant. I planted in a 20in pot in April 2019 and the roots have completely filled it! This explains why it threw out so many long canes as well.
