Could we have input from the people who grow 'Mme. Alice Garnier'. Is it once blooming, (as the main page says), or continuous (as per the 2003 references)?

The bloom size would also be helpful. The 2003 ref says 3-4cm. Another 2003 says 4-5cm. And 1986 - 5cm.

I have just ordered this. A half barrel in my container garden just became vacant (courtesy of a prunus Hokusai that was growing too large for its own good, or mine, or the roses') and have been spending the last few days in a frenzy of indecision about which climbing or small rambling rose to put in it. Pax? (What if I hate it when the stamens brown?) Mrs Herbert Stevens, Mrs Sam McGredy? (If only they didn't grow so large). Narrow Water? (Will I shudder at clouds of pink?). Moschata? (But years ago it refused to bloom for me...) Then, on the strength of GST's and CQ-R's descriptions of the scent (respectively, 'extremely fragrant of green apples' and 'delicious scent of ripe peaches') I quickly ordered the last plant of Mme Alice Garnier Trevor White had for sale this season.
Trevor White says it is repeat flowering, and so does Roseland House Garden and Nursery (they seem the only nurseries still to carry it in Britain); and GST says of the group of roses in which he includes Mme Alice Garnier (namely, 'Ramblers and climbers derived from the musk rose or Synstylae section intermarried with the offspring of the China and tea roses'): 'They flower mainly at midsummer, but most of them produce odd blooms until the autumn, especially if not parched or starved; in fact, a thorough soak after flowering will often start them into bud again.' From this, I deduce that Mme Alice Garnier may be a repeat or continuous bloomer in cool and wet climates such as England but perhaps not in continental or Mediterranean conditions. In support of that hypothesis, the Italian nurseries that sell this variety say it is once flowering in summer.
I will provide an update in the next few months about re-bloom or lack thereof of my plant in its first season in my garden (or rather in its half-barrel)...

I really would like to know what the name mean? Does anyone know something about that?

Hi, this comes 4 years late, but if you happen to see it, it probably means 'orange basket'

I believe the bush form of Paul Lede is extinct (or at least not available in commerce as such) and most probably all photos displayed under this entry should be under cl. Paul Lede. I know for a fact that Oldrosarian's photo of Paul Lede is of the climbing form (from discussions in Gardenweb) and this form has been reintroduced in commerce recently as Mons. Paul Lede by Palantine in Canada from budwood supplied by her. In Europe cl. Paul Lede has been available for long also as Paul Lede.

Interesting. It is fairly easy to prove that a rose is a climber. But a little harder to prove that the little squirt is the original bush for it could be the climber growing in unsuitable conditions. Perhaps comments from others -and the HMF photographers on the height of their bushes might help. I'll send the photographers a private message - there is only four.

To add a little weight to your theory, I note that the same photo has been used for both the climber and bush on the ARS MR site.

Please check out this thread http://forums2.gardenweb.com/discussions/4171313/palatine-has-my-all-time-fav-climber?n=14 where Old Rosarian (Lynette) discusses her rose.
There's no bush form of Paul Lede under that name in commerce in Europe nor in Australia afaik and I don't believe there's in N. America either. Confusion might stem from this fact since nurseries do not find it necessary to differentiate.

Also please check out this older thread where morrisnoor (Maurizio Usai), a world renown and respected landscape architect and rosarian from Sardinia, Italy mentions that he believes the bush form is extinct.

NikosR, I am sure you are right. I've been gleaning from the books and will add references.
Later edit. Because of your comments, NikosR; the square brackets in the 2001 reference; and the 1965 reference, I have marked this 1902 hybrid tea "believed extinct or lost". I have also moved all photos into the climber file. Anyone who disagrees is most welcome to move them back as that would signify this original bush form might not be extinct.

Paul Lede was definitely a climber in my garden. I got it from Roses Unlimited in 2007. After putting on size and having a few wonderful years of bloom, it was damaged by severe winter cold three years ago and it never recovered. RIP.

Thanks Hartwood. That justifies moving your photo out of the bush and into the climber.

I have received the following private message from member Alex.m in Austria:

Mine is the original bushform-the height is 70-90cm.
I got it from Eva Kotzmuth the former owner of Giovannis Garden and she maybe got it from Sangerhausen or Martin Weingart.
Giovannis Garden had a huge varitey of very rare roses ( I'm very happy to get many from them)- unfortunatly it dosent exist anymore.
......I know its the last :-( Eva Kotzmuth gave it to me because she know that I will take good care of it. Unfortunatly its a very delicate plant - it dosen´t bloom this year and is a very slow grower. I will talk to a friend of mine who is the owner of a rose nursery in the near (Baumschule Ecker) maybe he will propagate i

That's very interesting! It would be good to know if Alex.m's delicate bush is budded or bare root. Maybe it would benefit from a climate milder than Austria's.

hi,
Usually even delicate chinas like the climate in my garden, but this fellow has special needs and is very easily offended ;-) .
Next season I will try to propagate it with cuttings.

I have a found rose in California zone 9b that may be Paul Lédé, The undersides of the petals are pink. It opens with a cream top side, apricot at the base of the petals. The stamens are maroon. My rooted cutting makes almost continuous huge, and hugely scented blossoms with maroon stamens. Does this sound like Paul? Or climbing Paul?

Do you know what "Ping Dong" mean?
REPLY
Reply #2 of 1 posted 2 APR 19 by Kim Rupert
Entering "Ping Dong" into Google Translate provides Pingtung, a county in Taiwan. Therefore a loose translation of the name should be "The monthly flowering rose of Pingtung, Taiwan".
