Compte de Chambord is perhaps my favorite rose.
It’s an antique rose that has the most lovely rose perfume scent. The rose is quite hardy as well! It’s branches have very little winter damage in the spring and green up quickly as the weather warms.
The first flush of flowers at the end of May or in early June just cover the rose bush and the scent from the flowers wafts through the air.
Some of my close neighbors tell me that they can smell my roses – especially in the morning – and I know most of the scent that they are smelling comes from Compte de Chambord and perhaps my Baron prevost and Jacques Cartier roses as they are my smelliest roses.
Beautiful rose!
nice post i relly love rose
for me it shows love, sensitivity, sweetness and beauty
I have to admit I have a love of the old garden roses myself. There’s nothing as magical as walking past a doorway or arbour and being showered with the scent of these beauties!
The Alba rose is another lovely variety, white to light pink, and with a heavenly scent.

I love rose. I have a coffee mug having a rose flower pic imprinted on it.
