Overview

AC Marie-Victorin is a shrub rose from Ian S. Ogilvie's Canadian breeding work, granted US patent PP11650 in 2000. Its peach-pink flowers are fairly full at about 34 to 42 petals and roughly 2.75 to 3.3 in (7 to 8.4 cm) wide, with a light scent. The plant reaches about 3.3 ft (1 m) high and spreads to around 4 ft (1.2 m), so give it room to the sides. The patent rates its resistance to black spot and powdery mildew as moderate, so good air flow and clean-up of fallen leaves help.
