Please check the growing zones for Mr. Lincoln. I'm sure this rose tolerates zones that are colder than 7b -10b (the numbers currently shown on this website). Other websites are showing the growing zones for Mr. Lincoln as 5-9, 4-9 or 3-9! I've seen it growing successfully in zone 5.
Thanks!

I saw Mr. Lincoln classified for zone 7a as well. That may be a mistake. I grow it in zone 6a and this winter, with unusually low temperatures, it suffered much dieback. I am convinced that in warmer zones it does much better. Zone 7a may be a stretch, but I wouldn't recommend it for zone 5.

I live in Spain and have found that Chrysler Imperial is very popular and widely available here. It can be bought at almost every garden centre. The label you have found is also common and the word "tercioelo" means velvet, referring, in this case, to the petal texture.
Not sure if I´ve answred your question, but hope so.

Sorry. I can't english writting. Efectivamente la rosa Chrysler Imperial es muy popular en España desde los años sesenta. En Madrid, hay magníficos arriates en la Rosaleda del Parque del Retiro y en la Rosaleda del Parque del Oeste. Su apelativo "roja terciopelo" = red velvet, se refiere a la textura de los pétalos y al color. Textura y color, similares, que recuerdan, al terciopelo clásico español (textil). Posiblemente, por esa causa, es tan popular. Atentamente
