What about fragrance? Gloire de Dijon is usually described as strongly fragrant, but mine has very little scent. Please comment, anyone who grows this.

Gwen,


Are you sure you have it? Hortico sells a rose they call Gloire de Dijon but that is not Gloire de Dijon. The one I have also mirrors dominic's description.

fragrance "strength" is often a very subjective matter. My "Gloire de Dijon" flowers never exhibit what I can call a strong fragrance but a very impressive and delicate one. I can say strong and unique in quality if not very strong in smelling quantity.
