September Morn, discovered by Dietrich & Turner, 1913. A sport of Mme. Pierre Euler
This is a fine rose that is most unlike the Hybrid Teas as we know them today, with its large and fully double blooms containing up to 150 petals! There is a powerfully delicious fragrance to the blossoms as well, making this rose well worth a place in any collectors garden. As can be said of many of the early Hybrid Teas, this rose does best in a hot, dry climate. Even the earliest accounts said that California seemed to be the place where it performed its best. It can reach a maximum size of 4 to 6 feet tall, and 4 feet wide, and is nearly continuous in its rebloom. 'September Morn' is best grown as a budded shrub, as it apparently underperforms when grown on its own roots. You should contact Sequoia Nursery, which has limited quantities of this rare treasure.
