    Pretty rose... does the flower fade in the sun? or does it hold its color. Thanks for sharing your roses :)

    Hello Haku - my experience is that Molineux does not fade in the sun. It starts out as strong yellow, then becomes yellow/orange. It eventually fades to a pale yellow/white as part of the aging process. Hope that helps!

    Hi Carol - Molineux has a reliably light myrrh fragrance in my experience. It's not a rose for someone who wants strong fragrance but it has a lot of other great qualities. I won't buy a rose with zero fragrance. I will comprise and buy one with light fragrance if the rose has other qualities I really admire.

    Hi Sultry Jasmine - thank you for your kind comments. I love taking photos and sharing them with all the rose lovers on this forum.

    Thank you to everyone who gave this post a Like and/or commented!

    So sort of like Queen of Sweden? I have that rose. I love the fragrance even though it is light.

    I don't grow Queen of Sweden but I've scent-tested it before. I think on a scale of 1-5, if 5 is Abe Darby or Jude the Obscure, then I would rate Queen of Sweden as a 1 and Molineux as a reliable 2 and sometimes 2+/3 depending on weather. Molineux's myrrh scent is "sharp" compared with fruity floral scents so it registers with my nose as strong. Hope that helps!

    Wow! I mean... WOW! Love it!!

    So Molineux's fragrance is stronger than QoS's. Interesting. That helps a lot! Thanks!
