Charles
Rennie Mackintosh Rose * Introduced 1988 |
| Charles Rennie Mackintosh is one of the
most floriferous pink roses in our garden. It seems to be in bloom
constantly from Spring through to Winter pruning. I have had no disease problems with it at
all. The flowers are paler in the summer but are undeterred by summer heat.
The leaves are thin and pale green. By reputation Charles Rennie
Mackintosh has problems with mildew,
though I have not seen that here in our inland valley location. My bush is about
6 feet tall.
The parents
of Charles Rene Mackintosh include Mary Rose and a cross between Chaucer
and Conrad Ferdinand Meyer.
