'Coeur de Rockeur' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Outstanding large flowered striped rose with lovely fragrance. Bloom color is highly variable depending on weather. Seems particularly well suited for coastal Southern California. Good exhibition rose for categories not requiring classic HT form. Excellent mildew resistance.Better classified as a hybrid tea instead of a grandiflora.

Thank you for bringing up a statement I made13 years ago. My statement referring to the variation in color in this rose is incorrect. The blooms of this rose exhibit considerable variability in terms of the proportion of red to white. The variation is intrinsic in nature and unrelated to climate or weather. This type of variability is common in striped roses and adds to the charm of these roses.

A wonderful rose that won me the first prize in the Soham Garden Show in August 2021.

i have been growing R&R for 2 seasons, this is a rose that is slow to start, it has remained small over the summer months, but has started to fill out, FINALLY!!! It is such an amazingly beautiful rose, (Iam a lover of the stripes) I noticed a medium rose scent, its the first time it started scenting,very good with disease resistance. The summer doesnot slow its blooming, the winter was not as harsh as normal last year (zone 6)but it did fine, i had no dieback, it will update on the survival of this winter. In short an excellent addition to any garden, a real show stopper.

Someone in HMF mentioned that Rock & Roll is better than Neil Diamond, and I agree, after having Neil Diamond as 2nd-year-own-root. My neighbor's GRAFTED Rock & Roll is 100% healthy, never see blackspots on that one for years, despite planted next to a tree !! My OWN-ROOT Neil Diamond is prone to blackspot .. I had to move it to full-sun & dry & alkaline clay, before blackspot is reduced. Rock & Roll is consistently fragrant, versus unstable scent on my Neil Diamond (sometimes strong, other times gone).

Great information to know. I'm in a blackspot prone area at the Gulf Coast, and have been wanting a red and white stripe. Much obliged for the report.
