Description

The Generosa Rose - 'Nelson Monfort' is a bush rose that recalls the roses of yesteryear. From May to the first frost, it offers a delightful flowering composed of large, double, round flowers, in quarters, of a light yellow colour. They exude a powerful fragrance with notes of ginger, anise, herb, lime, and verbena, depending on the time and temperature. The flowering is abundant, regular, bright, and resistant to rain. And the flowers hold up well in a vase.

The Generosa Rose 'Nelson Monfort' (Masnelmo) is a bushy rose with a slightly erect habit. At maturity, it will reach approximately 1m (3ft) in height and 50 to 60cm (20 to 24in) in width. The flowering, which is very perpetual like all Generosas, begins in May and will only stop with the arrival of frost. The plant bears bouquets of 3 to 6 flowers measuring 10cm (4in) in diameter on sturdy stems. The flowers of this rose are born from pretty little green buds. They open into rounded, compact cups of over 100 petals arranged in quarters. Their colour ranges from light yellow to white, from the centre to the periphery. They emit a powerful fragrance in warm weather. The deciduous foliage is a matte light green, which enhances the flowering. It is somewhat susceptible to black spot disease (marsonia) in humid climates and towards the end of the season. This hardy shrub is very hardy.

The Generosa Rose 'Nelson Monfort' is well suited to small gardens and particularly enjoys sunny and not-too-humid climates. Plant it in isolation in the centre of a bed of low perennials, among other roses and white or pale yellow flowering shrubs. For example, pair it with Geranium Rozanne, Geranium Pink Cloud, Nepeta Walker's Low, or perennial Delphiniums. Its bright yellow flowers are particularly beautiful with white, blue, or orange blooms. You can cut its flowers to make beautiful scented bouquets for your interior.

Created in 2008, this rose is named after the sports journalist Nelson Monfort.

Bred by Dominique Massad for Guillot, 2008.

Planting and care

Rose bushes need sunlight for 4-5 hours daily, but protecting them from the strong sun and wind is best. They grow best in loose, permeable soil that is rich in humus. The soil should be well-cultivated and rich enough, but they can also grow in any soil. 

If you're planting them in a pot, loosen the soil to a depth of 10 inches and add a base amendment like blood, fish and bone at the bottom of the planting hole. Position the plant and cover the top of the root ball with 1 inch of soil. Fill in the hole, press down the soil, and water generously to eliminate air pockets. Water regularly during dry weather for a few weeks to help the roots develop. Use special rose fertilisers to promote flowering.

Roses may develop unsightly spots at the end of summer, but this is a natural occurrence and doesn't harm the rose's growth.
