'Moonlight' 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.

Does anyone know how shade tolerant this rose is? Thank-you.

I've seen Moonlight growing in southern England grown in part shade doing very well in both June and August.

It is susceptible to powdery mildew in the shade positions

I'm afraid many of the photos here do NOT show Pemberton's "Moonlight" - which is (as far as I know) not pink (not even soft) and only semi-double.

I agree. Likewise, many of the photos do not show the purple tinged foliage with silver reverse that is characteristic of Pemberton's 'Moonlight'.

For me, the main identifying characteristic of 'Moonlight' has been the "dark claret red" of the wood, as mentioned in the 1914 reference.
