Pierre de Ronsard

This is such a lovely rose!
I love it even if it's not fragrant
(well, it does have a very light fragrace, but nothing extraordinary)
I love it even if its head drops and, in fact, I believe this makes it even more charming.
It has such a lush &healthy folliage and it produces so many blooms, that I simply cannot understand why some people dislike it.
 
The details given by a side-photo of the bloom make it so unique




 
And look at those romantic-fat-heavy blooms!


 It's "climbing" against an arch in my garden and this is only its second summer and it almost reached the top.
Too bad I don't have more space to let it evolve naturally - this is the only regret I have about growing this wonderful rose
