In 1999, for Goethe's 250th birthday, Matthias Tantau created a Delightful variety of rose, and named it in honor of Countess Augusta Louise (1753-1835), who is known to history for her correspondence with the young Goethe. Strange as it may seem, it is precisely something aristocratic, something flirtatious and refined, something majestic and sophisticated that arises in associations with this variety among flower growers. At the beginning of dissolution and in full bloom - an unsurpassed beauty. The orange-red bud opens into a creamy pink flower with a salmon dusting. The aroma spreads over several meters, the bush is wide and blooms profusely. The rose blooms throughout the season. The bush is decorated with huge, fragrant flowers (15 cm in diameter), of a nostalgic shape. The bushes are strong, with dark green glossy foliage.

This rose immediately attracts attention with its color - as if splashes of white paint fell on the reddish-crimson petals of the rose and froze. This coloring of the buds fully justifies the name of the variety - Motley Fantasy - bred in 2000 in Crimea by breeders of the Nikitsky Botanical Garden, located on the southern slope of the Crimean Mountains. The rose variety Kronenburg was taken as the basis.

The main feature of flowers is that they can change color during the blooming process - the white strokes on the petals either increase or decrease in size. And this gives the bush a certain charm. The foliage is dark in color and only sets off the variegation of the buds. The aroma of flowers is subtle and very pleasant.

Characteristic features of the variety

The flowers of this hybrid tea variety are double and very full (each blossoming bud has 60-70 variegated petals), bowl-like. The size of the flowers is also striking – up to 15 cm in diameter.

The bushes of this rose are not wide in volume, but grow up to a meter in height. They do not have strong branching, but are compact.

But you should take into account the color of the “neighbors” of this rose so that the flowerbed looks beautiful.

The flowering time of this plant is from late spring to early autumn, and new buds can appear on the stems when the previous flowers are just finishing their bloom.

Secrets of agricultural technology

The rose variety Motley Fantasy is distinguished by its good adaptation to the environment - from heat and drought to periods of rain and cold weather. In the conditions of Crimea and similar climatic regions, this rose does not require shelter for the winter. But in other regions of our country, this plant should be covered for the winter either with a layer of humus (up to 15 cm thick) or with sawdust.

This flowering shrub has low resistance to the main diseases to which roses are susceptible. Therefore, during the season it is recommended to carry out several preventive sprays with special preparations designed to protect flowers from powdery mildew and black spot. In addition, this rose should also be treated against aphids.

Regular watering, especially during dry periods, weed control, fertilizing and spraying against pests are the main measures for caring for Variegated Fantasy. Before sheltering for the winter, bushes are usually pruned; fading flowers should also be regularly trimmed to encourage the appearance of new buds.
