Years ago I had one. I can't remember what happened to it, but last year I felt like trying it again as I had no negative memories of it. It was from 'John's Minature Roses' so took it awhile to get established. This fall it really came into it's own. If you like Souvineir de Malmaison (an OGR) you will like this rose bloom in cool weather. It's like a micro mini version of SDM. Tiny ferny foliage, no thorns, good for small containers. What's not to like?

Just a story about Cinderella...
I gave a talk on mini roses to a women's Christian group luncheon several years ago.
After the luncheon one of the ladies, who was blind, was brought up to my table to 'see' the mini roses that I had brought along.
As she reached towards the roses, her companion cautioned her against the thorns.
It just happened that the rose that I was showing her was 'Cinderella' and there was no consideration for thorns.
I always think of that when I'm working with this particular cultivar or suggesting a mini rose for a child's project.

I am glad to see this post as I was wanting to get a mini for a pot on my porch, but others I have tried have not done well at all. I had seen this one and considered getting it, so am now thinking it is a definite to add this upcoming year. Will it need to be sprayed for blackspot in humid East TN area?

This sounds like a really nice mini to have. I'll be looking for it. Help Me Find has a photo which shows a bit of blush/pink tones on the petals. Does anyone have one with this coloration? The all white is lovely, too.

For the most part, 'Cinderella' is white, but sometimes cooler weather will cause the pink blush that you saw in Decobug's photo. There are several other pictures at HMF and they all show this cultivar as white with no pink tones.
In early spring and late fall, my 'Cinderella' will have the blush tones too.

Thanks, Meg. I like that bit of blush. Very girly : - )

About disease. I read that it is "disease free". I don't know if that's true or not as I spray, but when I missed it a couple of times last year, no blackspot developed (which can happen amazingly fast in our humid climate). The only problem was a slight infestation of spider mites (so what else is new), but because the bush is so small I simply flipped the small pot over and blasted the undersides of the leaves with the hose. A couple of times doing that and no more problems.

Cinderella has performed beautifully for me. It is compact always in bloom and very disease resistant. If you are looking for a pink variety, Sweet Fairy is very comparable in size and habit with fragrance to go with it.

Sweet Fairy is a micro mini like Cinderella? Have a source?

Cinderella is like a miniature version of Lullaby. Both of them are bright white in intense heat and sun, and then very pink in cool spring and autumn when they are freshly open. From afar they still look white however, not pink.

I saw a Cinderella in a pot at a freind's house and fell in love with it too. I'm not keen on minis, but this one made an impression on me.

I found it at Bridges Roses. They sell good quality plants and their prices are reasonable. $6.95 apiece for most of their roses.
