Going into it's third year now and Renegade is doing much better. Big, healthy plant and lots of blooms in sprays. The only disagreement I have with its description is the color classification. It's definitely pink-edged instead of red.
I now have almost 50 roses and unfortunately, Renegade is the first one to be showing signs of blackspot. I have sprayed once so far this season and all the other roses are spotless. Although marvelously beautiful, Renegade is my weakest plant at the moment as far as vigor and disease resistance. It's only 2 years old, however, so perhaps it will improve with age.
