'Orange Triomphe' 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.

I agree with the first comment. This rose is an easy-doer. It is HUGE here, 3' T x 5'W. Everblooming. When I had it, it would ge autumn mildew, and the blooms dulled easily. But it was consistent, vigorous, and easy. When I bought it, it was sold as a small polyantha. Nothing about this rose is small, except the blooms. It is essentially a landscape rose in size -- a bit bigger than Bonica or Scarlet Meidiland.

Thought I'd mention as a new member, that this is my first comment. I've been growing "orange triumph" for years, though you could never have called it a big success. But two years ago, I dug it up and brought it inside my solar greenhouse for the winter and as you might guess, it grew into a real champion. So the following spring I planted it outside again, in a different spot, and it had a great summer and made it through the winter (zone 5a) just fine, with protection. It is still finishing another bloom cycle, though it's almost November. It's just a very pretty, underrated rose for its type - to me, anyway, it looks like a polyantha that grows like a vigorous floribunda.
