A few shots from the driveway today. People probably think having just pots in a city driveway is a pretty poor gardening option, but I have come to think of it as having more environmental value than having a real garden in the country, where there is a lot of plant life anyway. So much of the city is tarmac (and in a place as densely populated as where I live, that's appropriate due to rodents building labyrinthine nests wherever they can find open ground 😐), so any plant life is appreciated. Anyway, the phlomis is doing very well on its second year, so I'm hoping it blooms. The cold frame is full of goodies, including chrysanthemums, pink verbascum, lupines and chard, some of which we should have for dinner tomorrow. I have just taken delivery of a moss rose, Alfred de Dalmas, and the wallflower is already blooming. #citygardening #alfreddedalmasrose #containergardening

This picture I took just 10 days ago. It is hard to believe now, that everything is covered with snow ❄️ ❄️ ❄️ The rose is Mousseline/Alfred de Dalmas Rose , bred by Moreau-Robert (France, 1881), Moss rose It is a baby in my garden, placed in full sun and with very limited water supply. It did survive unbearable heat, kept blooming and was still eager to perform in late November! #oldroses #oldrosegarden #antiqueroses #heirloomroses #mossroses #mousseline #mousselinerose #mygardentoday #rosarium #alterosen #beginnergardener #roseobsession #instarose #instaroses #oldfashionedroses #gardenplanning #hardyroses #alfreddedalmasrose #стариннирози #mossrose #oldgardenroses #oldgarden #oldrosevarieties #oldmossroses #mygardeninjune #novemberblooms #underthefloralspell #petal_perfection #roses #historicroses
Really a delight! It is actually the first time I see her in her true splendour, as spring was all damp and despite abundant, her blooms were mostly dull and quite damaged. She is still very young and I truly hope for her to establish well.

Souvenir de la Malmaison ( Jean Béluze, 1843) September came with cooler weather and some rain. The afternoons are still sweltering, but the soil stays moist and it’s truly a garden revival! The roses are living a second spring :) 🌿🌱☀️🌹☺️. #oldroses #oldrosegarden #antiqueroses #heirloomroses #souvenirdelamalmaison #bourbon #bourbonrose #mygardentoday #rosarium #alterosen #beginnergardener #roseobsession #instarose #instaroses #oldfashionedroses #gardenplanning #hardyroses #alfreddedalmasrose #стариннирози #oldgardenroses #oldgarden #oldrosevarieties #oldmossroses #mygardeninjune #juneflowers #underthefloralspell #petal_perfection #roses #historicroses

Mousseline/Alfred de Dalmas Rose (Bred by Moreau-Robert (France, 1881), Moss rose Blooming for the first time and already very charming! It should be a repeat bloomer, in flashes throughout season. I shall see :). #oldroses #oldrosegarden #antiqueroses #heirloomroses #mossroses #mousseline #mousselinerose #mygardentoday #rosarium #alterosen #beginnergardener #roseobsession #instarose #instaroses #oldfashionedroses #gardenplanning #hardyroses #alfreddedalmasrose #стариннирози #mossrose #oldgardenroses #oldgarden #oldrosevarieties #oldmossroses #mygardeninjune #juneflowers #underthefloralspell #petal_perfection #roses #historicroses
The Alfred de Dalmas rose is unique compared to most other moss roses as this plant is tolerant of shady conditions. We suggest planting the Alfred de Dallas in a location of your garden that does not get as much sunlight. However, we suggest altering your water schedule in this situation, as these moss roses will not need as much hydration as a moss rose that lives in full sun. USDA growing zone: 6b through 9b. 🔗Click on the link in bio to read the complete guide to moss roses. 📸 Credit: john121974 #alfreddedalmas #alfreddedalmasrose #antiquerose
L'ultima per oggi. Un'altra muscosa che è tra le mie preferita. Per adesso è in vaso ma il prossimo inverno la metterò in terra. Alfred de Dalmas, o Mousseline. ❤️ . . . . . . #rosaalfreddedalmas #alfreddedalmas #alfreddedalmasrose #rosemousseline

'Alfred de Dalmas', a perpetual moss rose from 1855, doing its best impression of a peony today and, a couple of weeks ago, of a water lily? It's a new rose to me, given to me by a friend who is redesigning her garden and had no place for it. I've been very impressed by how remontant and healthy it is. Why did I think it was a stingy bloomer and prone to fungal diseases? It's neither! It has been in bloom since I received it this spring, not even slowing down when I planted it in the ground. It's also been slowly building in size while continuing to bloom - a feat not many roses are able to do. To top it all off, it's been subjected to overhead watering from the nearby lawn's irrigation system, but the leaves have remained healthy without fungicide. So far, I can heartily recommend this rose to anyone who is considering growing it. And if you're not considering growing it, maybe you should! 😉 #alfreddedalmas #alfreddedalmasrose #antiquerose
