  • Other Details
  • VERY FRAGRANT! Auguste Renoir® refuses to go unnoticed with his bright blossoms set against semi-glossy, medium green foliage. His pink, mostly solitary, cupped, old-fashioned, rounded, 3 ½” blooms are so full of both petals and deep fragrance that he calls to you from across the garden.  He may be used for beds and borders or as cut flowers. Best in zones 7 and up, Auguste Renoir® doesn’t love excessive rain but can tolerate heat well.

Outstanding Fragrance

I actually give this rose a 5 for fragrance as I only grow highly fragrant roses in Maryland. It is the most fragrant rose I have grown over the past 30 years. I lowered the score to 4 to be fair as it is not a classic formed rose and the heads are so heavy they will frequently droop. From that view it would score a 3. Unlike many of the highly fragrant roses (Bellaroma , etc) you will start to sense the Auguste Renoir perfume from 10 ft away. In hot summer sun, it increases in intensity. Mine are now going on 18 years and have suffered through various disease ills (botrytis - spotted it late) . Overall it is disease resistant and with own-roots it has come back. I recently had to take a drastic action and transplant one of them as new trees were shading it. Even with the harsh transplant it came back this past year and bloomed well.
