Can anyone confirm the scent of Trier's blooms? The plant wearing the label "Trier" in my garden has soft but distinct myrrh scent. That doesn't seem right for a Lambertiana. I wonder if my plant is confused with a semi-double Ayrshire.	REPLY

Trier is a great rose in my organic rose garden. Sweetly fragrant and gracefully arching I would not be without it now that I have tried it. I think most of the fine hybrid musk roses I grow got most of the best traits from Trier being one of their parents. I wish the rose industry would take up hybridizing hybrid musks again from Trier, as I think she still has a lot of tricks up her sleeve. I just added Jeri Jennings last year, a new Trier kid. It opens egg yolk yellow and softens through shades of butter, very pretty and so far has turned out as healthy as her mother.

I love hybrid musks, too. Louis Lens used Trier extensively. Do you have Plaisanterie? It's a beast.	REPLY

Have not tried that one yet, but I do know of it and will watch for it from the nurseries I tend to order from. I was very excited that Cliff Orent was about to offer lots of Lens's hybrid musks and suddenly had to shut down his nursery due to some zoning problem that demanded native vegetation only. He had many things I wanted. I think Plaisanterie was one of them that was going to become available. Where did you get yours?

I got it from Heirloom. It roots like a house afire. I'd be happy to share cuttings after bloom.	REPLY

Wilhelm Mütze/Camillo Schneider state parents of Trier as Aglaia x Sharman Crawford in "Das Rosenbuch" (1924)	REPLY

I was wondering about this parentage as Molly Sharman-Crawford is from 1909. Today I find the parentage Aglaia x Mrs. Sharman Crawford for Trier in the "Rozen-Catalogus voor Najaar 1923" of M. Leenders & Co in Netherlands. A look back into helpmefind brought up Mrs. R.G. Sharman-Crawford, a HP from 1894. This must be the correct one.	REPLY

Actually, the parentage with Mrs. R.G. Sharman-Crawford seems to have been known. I quote from Phillips/Rix' "The Random House Book of Roses" (a wonderful book for picture comparisons):

"Trier This was raised in 1904 by a German nurseryman, Peter Lambert, and was descended from a seedling of 'Aglaia', crossed with the Hybrid Tea 'Mrs R. G. Sharman Crawford'. 'Aglaia' itself was a hybrid between R. multiflora and 'Reve d'Or', a Noisette."
