The Peter Mayle rose is a captivating hybrid tea rose

Posted on November 22, 2023

The Peter Mayle rose is a captivating hybrid tea rose that has garnered admiration for its enchanting deep pink blooms and strong, old-rose fragrance. Introduced in 2000 by renowned rose breeder Meilland International, this exquisite rose captures the essence of Provence, the charming region of France that Peter Mayle vividly portrayed in his novels.

Characteristics of the Peter Mayle™ Rose:

  • Bloom Size: 4-5 inches in diameter
  • Color: Deep, velvety pink with a hint of lavender
  • Fragrance: Strong, old-rose fragrance with hints of spice and honey
  • Height: 4-6 feet
  • Width: 3-4 feet
  • Hardiness Zone: 5-10
  • Bloom Time: Late spring to early fall
  • Disease Resistance: Excellent resistance to black spot and powdery mildew

Care and Cultivation:

  • Sun Exposure: Prefers full sun to partial shade for at least 6-8 hours daily to encourage abundant blooms and healthy growth.
  • Soil Type: Thrives in well-drained, fertile soil with a slightly acidic pH of 6.0 to 6.5.
  • Watering: Water regularly, especially during hot, dry periods. Aim for 1-2 inches of water per week during dry spells.
  • Fertilizing: Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season with a balanced rose fertilizer.
  • Pruning: Prune in late winter or early spring to remove dead, diseased, or damaged canes, and maintain a desired shape.
  • Winter Protection: In colder climates, protect the rose from harsh winter temperatures by mounding mulch around the base after the first frost.

Additional Tips:

  • Deadhead spent blooms to promote continuous flowering and prevent the plant from expending energy on seed production.
  • Mulch around the base of the rose to retain moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature.
  • Enjoy the blooms! Cut and enjoy the fragrant blooms of your Peter Mayle™ rose indoors or use them to create beautiful arrangements.

By following these comprehensive care guidelines, you can successfully grow and maintain healthy, vibrant Peter Mayle™ roses that will grace your garden with their stunning beauty and intoxicating fragrance for years to come.
