Madame Alfred Carriere, introduced in 1879. Though classed as a Noisette, the full blooms of this rose are more of a Bourbon or Hybrid Tea in shape. The flowers are intensely fragrant, cupped, and double opening the palest of pinks, then cooling to creamy white. Vigorous to about 20 feet and easy to work with, "Madame Alfred" will create a vertical focal point in any garden. From our 2009 rose garden. Thanks for viewing and comments.

This is a beautiful blossom and it's such a gorgeous colour. Marvelous detail and clarity, I can almost smell this wonderful capture Hollis.

An excellent shot of a wonderful rose, Hollis. The petals look so soft and the soft pink colour is very attractive.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
