Rosa 'Abbaye de Cluny' (aka MEIbrinpay) is an apricot blend hybrid tea rose, bred by Alain Meilland before 1993. Meilland International introduced the rose in France in 1995. It is one of Meilland's Romantica rose series. Rosa 'Abbaye de Cluny' won the Belfast Gold Medal in 1995.
'Abbaye de Cluny' is a medium bushy, upright hybrid tea rose, 3 to 4 ft (0.91–1.22 m) in height, with a 2 to 3 ft (0.61–0.91 m) spread.[1] The double flowers have a cabbage-like form and are an apricot-orange color with orange or copper toward the edges. The rose has a mild scent.[2] It has medium, semi-glossy, dark green leaves that are resistant to blackspot. It is very disease resistant.[3] Romantica roses are known for their long bloom cycles from spring to autumn. They are similar to old roses in their colors and traditional fragrances.[4]
