Rosa 'Francis Meilland', also known as 'Schloss Ippenburg' or 'Prince Jardinier', is a light pink Hybrid tea rose cultivar. The rose was developed by Alain Meilland in France in 2006, and has won multiple awards in Europe and the United States.
Rosa 'Francis Meilland', also known as Rosa 'Schloss Ippenburg' was introduced in France in 2006, developed by rose breeder, Alain Meilland, of Meilland International. The new rose was named in honor of legendary French horticulturalist, Francis Meilland (1912-1958). Francis Meilland is recognized for creating the 'Peace' rose, originally introduced as Rosa 'Madame A. Meilland' in 1942. The rose is considered the "most famous rose in the world and still the most widely grown".[1] 'Francis Meilland' was the last rose to be named as an All-America Rose Selections winner in 2013.[2]
