The Montville RoseRosa 'Duchesse de Brabant'
Synonyms: Rosa 'Comtesse de Labarthe'
Family: Roseaceae
Although its formal name is 'Duchesse de Brabant', this rose has become better known in Southeast Queensland as "the Montville rose" due to it being widely planted in that Sunshine Coast town. It goes very well in the subtropics and is an ideal variety for novice rose growers in this climate to get started with.
The Montville rose was covered in more detail in the 29-12-2023 edition of Get Results Gardening.
