Zephirine Drouhin rose wanted for SW France

Hi,

I am looking for Zephririne Drouhin rose. I can not find it here in SW France and David Austin is also sold out.
Can anybody tell me another source for this rose or have a cutting that you can send me.

With kind regards,
JLed

The 'Pépinières Loubert' have it in their catalog. You can send them a mail at "thérèse.loubert@wanadoo.fr". But you'd better call them to be sure they still have it at that time.
Their number is 02 41 38 06 02.

If you don't find it, I can send you cuttings, but that will be in August, I think - I'm quite new in gardening and have never made cuttings, but someone in this forum told me that.

Thank you Nouna,

I will try them. How are your experiences with this rose? Is it very fragrant? Does it grow fast or slow?

With kind regards,
Jacqie Led

I've had a Zéphinrine Drouhin for about 6 years now. It grows wonderfully. The blooms are not very fragrant, but what they lack in fragrance they more than make up for in color and number. One dark spot, though: Zéphinrine Drouhin is really prone to disease (black spot and powdery mildew), so you have to treat early and watch them with a hawk's eye.

hello Jacqie ;
my Drouhin was always ill. I just burnt her. Now Mme Ernest Calvat is doing the job very well (some spray-ing against black spot) Perhaps your garden is just the place for her.
good luck - Kaatje

Exusez mon pauvre anglais. On le trouve aussi chez André Eve, à Pithiviers (www.roses-anciennes-eve.com). Beaucoup de références, de très beaux rosiers, et ils échangent ceux qui n'ont pas passé l'hiver.
