Has anyone grown this rose in a warm climate (southern California or equivalent)? I'm wondering how large this rose gets and how the blooms hold up hot weather.

I have Flora Danica and it is planted in the warmest part of the garden. It shows no sign of objecting to constant full sun all day. It doesn't even bleach out.

I have a Flora Danica (Spellbound) in zone 9B. Mine is in full sun all day. It gets hot here in the Summer. We have many days over 100 degrees. It is doing great. It seems to love the sun. The blooms have very vibrant colors and hold up well.

This rose does extremely well in zones 9-10. It blooms non-stop from April to December. It does get a little powdery mildew when it's cool at night, but it's manageable. The flower also does well as a cut-flower. The beautiful creamy-white blooms look great with other white or pastel roses.

Has anyone tried pegging this rose? It has that octopus-type growth that many Austins have. Rather than prune it hard, I was considering self-pegging this rose to see if laterals would sprout.
