Marriotta, a unique beautiful miniature rose!

7 years ago

Marriotta, a miniature rose, bred by Samuel Darragh McGredy IV (1981). The petals of this rose are so unique that you almost think that it's not a rose. The 1.5-inch blooms have deep pink color with mild fragrance. It's very healthy in my garden and blooms all the time. Helen

This has been on my wish list since year one. After seeing it in person, I don't know why I still don't have it. Your pictures completely capture its charm.

Ooo! So lacy! I love it. Thanks for sharing it with us. I'm just starting to grow some minis (so far I have Dresden Doll, Unconditional Love, and Twister) and am tempted to add this one to my collection.

That's such a neat little rose. I like the petal shape and the white outlines!

Thanks everyone. I have a soft spot in my heart for Marriotta. Rare beautiful roses often aren't very healthy, and when they do we have stars in our eyes because they are even more special. I adore this rose.

Diane, I can just image in your hands this rose will turn into a beautiful giant covered in blooms. Can't wait to see the pics :)

KS, you have beautiful minis. Twister's petals look so unique. Love the rose. Did you get yours from Burling? Helen

Yes, I got Twister from Burling this spring. It is really fun.

vaporvac, I think if one can only have one mini in a garden, Marrotta should be the one to have :) Helen
