I love this rose. She is absolutely flawless here in z11 in her second year. Dark, glossy foliage, vigorous and healthy. The blooms are among the most beautiful I've ever seen, with delightful fragrance.	REPLY

Ive had this rose for about 5 years now, and Ive never concluded much about it. I neither like or dislike it.

Pros: It blooms a lot, it is space-efficient, it smells nice, and its easy to keep around.

Cons: It weeps in heat, its form is inconsistent, and it really does not stand out.

If I had the choice of buying it again, I would skip out, but I would buy it if I liked this color type. So it may be for someone else.

Thanks for the review. On a Russian YouTube channel this jumps out with form and colour and really caught my eye. I wonder is it very climate/location fussy ?	REPLY
