{Fragrant Chrysler Imperial Rose}

Several years ago, we lost all our roses due to drought...
Finally we have found our highly fragrant Chrysler Imperial Rose back!
It is such a lovely Hybrid Tea Rose.
Chrysler Imperial was a 1953 AARS winner. (All American Rose Society)
A dream in a tiny Baccarat crystal vase.
It is a stunning and also a rather large rose...
My Rheinpfalz Hartporzellan cake plates from Germany also have red roses... They still are from my original trousseau. Yes, I did start quite young with gathering some nice pieces; several of which I still possess!
My home baked Amaretti cookies are on the cake plate...
Guess I always have loved roses.
That's also why we do have our {New Rose Arbor on High Heels} and it is visible from our bay window area as you can see here.
The teacups and teapot are by Seltmann Weiden Bavaria in then W. Germany in the Mirabell pattern.
The tablecloth is hand crocheted and was a gift from my dear friend Ellie.
Does any of you have this highly fragrant Chrysler Imperial Rose?

  3. Hello Mariette, Recently there was a discussion on simple, few-petaled roses versus larger, complex ones like the Chrysler Imperial. Your prime example shows that they simply have to be viewed as different types of flowers. I find its commercial name somewhat humorous--I just looked in Wikipedia, and apparently it was bred in California, but used in the Chrysler float in a Pasadena Parade in the 1950's, so I'm guessing that there was some sort of sponsorship money involved. One of the more interesting Naming stories!

    1. Dearest Jim,
      Thank you for your interesting information on this, indeed strangely named, beautiful rose! Those few petaled roses will never win from these charmers with strong fragrance.
      Oh, money can certainly buy a 'name' as has been proven so many times in history.
      Hope you enjoy a lovely week and sending you hugs,
      Mariette

    1. Beste Marianne,
      Het klimaat bij jullie zou anders uitstekend zijn voor rozen; in tegendeel tot bij ons hier.
      Liefs,

  7. Wunderschön ist die Rose und ihre Farbe, liebe Mariette. Und schön, daß Ihr wohlbehalten wieder zurück seid! Pflanzen zu verlieren ist schon traurig. Oft hat man gar nicht die Zeit und Gelegenheit, sich um alles im Garten zu kümmern, so wie bei mir jetzt mit den täglichen Fahrten und Aufenthalten im Krankenhaus. Da ist der Garten das Letzte, um das man sich noch kümmert ...

    Viele liebe Grüße
    Sara

    1. Liebe Sara,
      Danke, es ist eine sehr schöne, tief rote Rose.
      Ja wir sind wieder heim und dann findet man sehr viel Arbeit zum nachholen. Je älter wir werden, je weniger schaffen wir im Leben alle Sachen. Ich wünsche dir und deine Mutti das allerbeste!
      Liebe Grüsse,
      Mariette

    1. Beste Willy,
      Dank je, het is inderdaad een erg mooie combinatie zo. De koekjes zijn erg lekker.
      Geniet ook van jullie tuinrozen, ze hebben het wellicht beter naar de zin dan hier bij ons.
      Liefs en een fijne week.
