'High Sheriff' rose Reviews & Comments

My first year with this rose, so I cannot comment on some things.
Not seeing the usual downy and black spot on this rose, like I did with Silver Jubilee and some of its kin. Some minor bs at the bottom, but nothing to write home about. It is definitely a shorter rose, and definitely flowers in clusters. Form, blooms size, and color seems to vary with temperatures. Seems to always be some version of summer fruit color blend, but I would not describe it as orange-red.
Not prickly like its half-sister, 'Remember Me', although they do have a lot in common. Foliage and petals are more rounded, but Remember Me does seem a little more heat tolerant.
So far, it is kind of like a short grandiflora version of 'Easy Does It'. I will edit and comment again in the future when it is completely mature. However, I definitely don't regret buying this rose.
Edit: 2025: This rose has ridiculous onw-root vigor. A nice surprise. It provides quite a lot of new basals, which is not always common for own-root HT roses. Own-root 'Love and Peace' is the same way.
