Thank you. I ran across a treasure trove of old catalogs and was able to take advantage of the scanning skills of my nephew.

Thank you. I was intending to do that after I finished writing the catalog so I could direct people to it online. In this instance, I was just responding to the inquiry because I was researching the rose.

Thankyou! I would love to have that info! Micro-minis are a favorite of mine, and it is hard to find much variety. This one looks lovely.

If you like micro-minis, you might take a look at 'Baby Jane Clare,' a late mini from Ralph Moore; the blooms are smaller than a dime, fullyl double and medium pink. It is a sport of a seedling of 'Sequoia Ruby.' I won the naming rights a couple of years ago and named it for my BW. JimD

Just as a reminder: Petite Perle d'Or is offered in the 2009 VCRS Rose Auction Catalog posted on the VCRS website: www.venturarose.org.

'Petite Perle d'or' was sent to Greenheart Farms for testing last year. They have so much going on at the moment I don't know if they will ever get to it.
Pat at Roses Unlimited loves 'Petite Perle d'or' and would like to offer it but because it is a micro mini, it would take too long to get to a salable size in a one gallon container.
Apparently disease resistance is pretty good. It enjoys humidity in the SE.
This is one that really needs to be offered in a 2 1/4" or 4" pot. It's best in a container. The original seedling is about 12" tall by 18" wide.

Thanks for the info--the small size is part of what makes the micro minis appealing--they do very well in pots for me and just bloom their little hearts out. I only have 3, and the really tiny ones seem to be hard to come by. Petite Perle looks wonderful. I appreciate you taking time to respond to my question.

Thanks for your interest Sally. It is a very cute little rose. It's not that much larger than, 'Si'. Robert

I have been growing this rose for about 4 years. The two plants that I have are very hardy. I do have to spray for black spot but I'm in Florida. Everything gets black spot. The fragrance is superb! One of my favorite roses.

I have had this in my garden for about ten years in a container. This past year we had a week of belowing freezing weather and the response of the rose was to produce an amazing array of blooms all along the canes. I will post a picture I have taken later. JimD
