More information

A century ago, Paul Neyron was recorded as the rose with the largest blooms; under favorable conditions its flowers reach 16–17 cm. The blooms are deep pink with a lilac tint and a silvery reverse to the petals. Globular buds open into very large, cupped flowers that are very full, with undulating, peony-like petals. The blooms are held firmly on strong shoots, do not droop, and usually appear singly, occasionally 2–3 together. The foliage is large, matte green, with some susceptibility to black spot. With attentive cultivation, growth and flowering increase; in hot climates, with adequate feeding and watering, it repeats roughly every six weeks.

Cupped blooms stand out against bright green foliage on a vigorous bush. The flowers show a purple cast and a peony-like appearance, reaching about 12.5 cm in diameter. Without protection, it can freeze completely.

Paul Neyron bears fragrant, bright pink flowers up to 18 cm across, held vertically on strong, upright shoots. The foliage is large and glossy. This vigorous variety requires ample space and is used at the back of a mixed border.
