Princesse Charlene de Monaco® Potted Climbing Rose
Rosa ‘Meidysouk’ PP 24,296 — Princesse Charlene de Monaco®
Princesse Charlene de Monaco® is an exquisite hybrid tea rose bred by Meilland® of France and named in honor of the elegant princess. Her blooms are nothing short of breathtaking—swirls of soft apricot and shell pink unfold into lavish, ruffled flowers packed with 100+ petals and an unforgettable fresh-fruit fragrance. Each 5″ bloom radiates romance, making this variety a favorite for cutting and garden display.
🌟 At our farm, we've trained this stunning rose into a climbing form. With thoughtful staking and vertical support, Princess Charlene de Monaco® was grown on a stake to a height of 40–60", making it a wonderful choice for small trellises, obelisks in containers, or vertical accents in tight garden spaces. Her naturally upright and bushy habit lends itself beautifully to this graceful, space-saving presentation.
