thinking about putting a full row of princess charlene in the ground in my unheated greenhouse this spring. i am in a cold climate, upstate new york 6a, but the protected growing environment makes it more like 6b-7b. from what i can see, her nice range of colors would work for weddings but might also blend well with all purpose mixed bouquets. i'm definitely looking for a hybrid tea/ longer vase life as this will be for my small cut flower enterprise. do you think she will be floriferous in my climate? any tips on how to best avoid the "crisping" or browned edges i sometimes notice on her outer petals? Is that an effect of heat/ desiccation of the petals, or is it water damage, or the age of the bloom? Thank you for any thoughts. I am a new member, and a couple years deep into rose addiction. -Brian

There seems to be some errors in the US patent: the summary of the parentage and the description of the parentage are not in accordance with each other.

Parentheses in the wrong place.

Could be that the description is wrong.

Hi! I live at the coast in the PNW. How is Charlene in regards to rain/balling? I'd love to try to grow this beauty.
Well, no one responded to my question, but based on all of the positive comments in general, I have decided to make the purchase from Heirloom Roses in Oregon. Wish me luck!

I find her such a delight, and have not seen much problem with balling here in Zone 5b, Maine. She is pretty healthy, and with some spring pruning has done well. One was a small own root, one was grafted. We can have such cold wet weather here. And fog sometimes too. The saddest story with balling for me has been Earth Angel.
