Hi, does anybody grow this rose in part shade? The area beside my front door I'd like to plant a climber in gets about 4-6 hrs morning sun, depending on whether it's winter or summer. I'm in 10a, bay area California where it hits 100F maybe 5 days per year. Thank you!

Hi,
I grow it in partial shade, doesn't thrive there and does not behave as a climber at that spot.
Abraham Darby copes better with partial shade.

Yes, Abraham Darby tolerates some shade.

Thank you both for the speedy replies! I'm headed down to Regan in a bit and they've also got James Galway. Do either of you have experience with this rose in shade? Thanks again.

I have no experience with Galway.

Sorry, no experience with Galway either.
