Madame Pierre Oger is a bourbon discovered in 1878. It is supposed to bloom in flushes and attain a height of 4-8 feet and about 3 feet wide. Again, why did I put this at the front of the bed? I think I wanted it to be in scale to the massive butterfly bush it's next to.
I just hope this does bloom in flushes as I'm sure the spring flush will be destroyed by Japanese beetles. I'm dying to see the first blooms as I adore cupped, pink/white blooms.

I purchased this rose as a band from
Rogue Valley Roses in May of 2010. She's on the far right in the pic below. RVR was having a sale on "split-stem" roses and this was one of them.
