Exquisite, incredibly fragrant. After 25 years of growing beautiful roses, Claire Matin is my all-time favorite.

Rose Clair Matin is my number 1.This is the most beautiful, exquisite, long-blooming, beautiful rose in my garden.My rose has been growing in my garden for the second year and has already made me very happy with its beauty.

Since planting Clair in half-day (morning) sun along my east wall in the late spring of 2021, I have been rewarded with a happily prolific climber that is seldom bothered by the black spot that affects some of my roses. We have cables in four tiers to train it on, and each year its canes get longer to extend farther along the cables. The blooms come mainly in clusters and sometimes singly. Here it is late November in Zone 6b, and still I have a cluster of blooms bobbing in the breeze outside my window. The neighbors on my east side enjoy the view of Clair along my wall.

I planted this, and two others, January of 2023, along a blasting west facing wall. First year, she bided her time - beautiful flowers, but not much growth and a fair bit of mildew. This spring she has taken off, is throwing 1/2" thick five foot canes every few weeks, non-stop flowering, and shook off the mildew from a damp spring like a champ. Zone 9, California, and I mulch very heavily at the last rain and provide very little supplemental water.
