It would be good to have a couple of photos of the “Chios Rose”. Perhaps a closeup of the bloom, and one of the whole bush?

Thanks mr.Bour. I have taken the liberty of moving your photo out of the Members Comments and into the photos for “Chios Rose”. I hope that is okay with you and look forward to seeing a photo of the bloom one day. Your plant looks very healthy.

The ''Old centifollia from Chios'' or Chios Rose is a beautiful ,vigorous plant .Flowers are medium size,deep pink with strong damask fragrance.
Chios is a Greek Island in the Aegean Sea.It is the homeland of many Greek ship owners and sailors who always(even centuries b.c.) had active commerce and cultural trading with every known part of the world ,like most of Greeks.
So this plant may have come from anywhere at anytime it existed.
The most important historical event in Chios ,before its liberation in 1912 is the massacre of the population and burning of the island by the Ottomans revenging the Greek Revolution 1821, immortalized by E.Delacroix in his famous painting ''The massacre of Chios''
Chios island is also famous for the unicqe mastiche tree.

I ordered Chios as a bare root rose from Avramis at the beginning of the year.
She has really taken off and is covered in blooms. I added some pics, will add more as she grows.
This is a fantastic rose, with amazing fragrance.
