I love this little rose! I agree with the previous poster that it blooms very profusely, and in my garden, it blooms for a long time. I can't really say how hardy it is because someone other than me planted it in
soil with a high content of peat moss. In our local climate that keeps rose roots too soggy most of the year. This 3 year old bush has lots of dieback and is obviously struggling to grow.

Little Artist is one of the most cold hardy roses in our yard. Every spring since 2001 we have only seen tip damage on it. Almost every bloom forms a huge hip. They are fertile too. We have several volunteers and they seem as tough as Little Artist. One (a red single) blooms almost as much as Little Artist. That is saying a lot because LA is a blooming fool. I am surprised that the descendant list for this rose is so short.
