Just cut my first blooms from Sweet Chariot which was planted in the ground spring 2023. Very fragrant and gorgeous cerise color. As recommended I need to fertilize. Also this plant is in partial shade unfortunately. Will see how it progress es this year.

I have two Sweet Chariots that in the last eight years have moved from pots into the ground, and then I relocated them once more this spring when I moved around some other shrubs and roses in a long-planned update of the plantings my front and back yards. It is a great rose with a tidy mounded habit. I love how very tiny the foliage is.

Yes, I remember when it first came out. It crated quite a sensation. It used to be marketed in hanging baskets which makes it easier to appreciate the fragrance.

Does anybody have more information on his rose ‚Magic Moss‘ or grows it?

This rose is apparently mislabelled as Rosa x centifolia, it lacks the moss of Rosa x centifolia “Simplex”/La Louise if that one has it but they have some similarities yet it lacks reddish thorns, but it’s standing a little shady. Or even rosa gallica or some root base? The flower was photographed with flash, the colour is a tiny bit less intense in vivo. I thought about r. rugosa var. rubra but it lacks the bushiness (2m high) and had no hips and it grows offshoots too.
May y’all help me in the identification of this rose.

The foliage makes it look a bit like one of the Rugosa roses.

Thank you, after some reconsideration i think it’s a Rugosa too, the ofshoots we’re probably cut off in time.

Maybe it was a Rugosa root stock that has taken over, something like 'Hollandica', although I have no idea if that or anything similar is still used in Europe for that purpose.
