My bush is also first year and in the spring the blooms nodded somewhat, but this fall the stems are quite strong and the blooms are gorgeous. They smell wonderful and are actually bigger than my Abraham Darby. This is a rose that I always want to have in my garden.

All this info is great. I love the look of this bloom and have been wondering which rose might do well in a container that sits on my deck above eye level. If Heaven on Earth does have errant behavior, if it flops over a bit, it sounds perfect for this particular need of mine. Does anyone know how it does in a container...what it's like as a cut flower?

I'm not sure how this one would do in a pot, but it is the most beautiful rose in my garden at the moment. ( I have 90 roses, so that is saying something). The Easter Freeze killed it back nearly to the ground, but it has rebounded with a vengenance. It is probably 4.5 ft high completely covered in blooms. It is awesome. I completely recommend this rose.

This rose has a lemony scent that is quite strong. The blooms are beautiful and very plentiful. The rose bush itself is probably 3 feet tall, but it is a first year. The blooms open yellow and then fade to a deep gold. This rose started me on yellows, as I was not a fan of yellow roses before I fell in love with this one's scent.

Does it have a long bloom time?

The blooms only seem to last a few days in the extreme heat that we have been experiencing. However the 2 bushes that I have of this one seem to rarely be without a bloom. It bounced back from the 'Easter Freeze' without a lot of problems. This rose is well worth the space.
