Reve D'Or
Origin - Ducher, 1869
Parentage - 'Mme. Schultz' x unknown
Color - Yellow/gold
Foliage - Medium green
Thorns - Light
Size - 12'- 15' + (climbing)
Fragrance - Strong, tea
Repeat bloom - Yes
Disease resistance - Good
Hardiness - Zone 7
The Name of the Rose - The name means "golden dreams" or "dream of gold" in French.
I first saw this rose in the garden of Pat Henry, owner of Roses Unlimited, in Laurens, South Carolina. She had it growing on a large twig structure and it was a breathtaking sight.
This is a vigorous grower, easily reaching heights of 15 feet or more. It can very easily and naturally be used to cover archways, sheds, pergolas or gazebos. The canes are thin and flexible when young making them easy to work with.
The flowers are buff yellow, loose, semi-double and strongly scented. They fade to a soft yellow and the color holds well. The foliage is equally attractive, starting out red and becoming a darker green.
A sport, William Allen Richardson, is richer in color.
