One of the most gorgeous roses I have grown. Sadly, it blackspots very badly. It makes a wide "V" pillar here, to 8' or so, and it blooms a lot.

At my place, sadly it did so too... and died.
On the other hand, friends of mine grow this rose outside, roots in the open air, the plant under an open porch, but covered from above with polyester roofing against rain.... It thrives and looks awesome!!!
Only the leafs, that get some rain get a little black-spot.

If you click the REFERENCES tab on the rose page, you will see that Kordes registered the rose as a shrub.

Lyn,
I just checked again and the references indicate climber not shrub. It is the discrepancy between the description page and the reference page that has me confused. Which is right?

stefan
PS I just noticed that the note from Apuldaram at the bottom of the description page also says climber.

OK... I'll add climber as one of the HMF classes because there is enough information both in the REFERENCES and that NOTE to make me a believer .... lol.
Just for your information, the American Rose registration information was provided by Kordes, but the ARS can only assign one class. HMF is more flexible and can use more than one class. Some roses simply don't fit just one class description.
Thank you for being so persistent. Our goal is to have good information for site users and the best information comes from site users.
Smiles,
Lyn

At my place it definitely behaved like a shrub! It can be trained as a climber under a glass roof.(dry and warm cicumstances)
I saw that at: De Kunsthoek nearby: http://www.dekunsthoek.nl/
There it was 2,5 m high and with a width of 4m.
Not covered by the glass roof it isn't vigorous and suffering badly from Blackspot at that same place.(see my earlier comment)
"normal" HT's become often as high as this climber: up to 1,50 m or even higher! Are they climbers too?
Or is this just marketing-strategy?

I don't have to pruneshovel this rose myself, she didt hat on her own behalf!
After defoliating completely (see last post) the plant couldn't ripen it's branches; it died completely in the last frost! All the stems/branches are black!
Other (frost-) weak sisters/brothers, like Mutabilis and Mermaid, survived the low temperatures and seem to thrive well!

This rose is the only rose in my garden with significant Blackspot, it's loosing lots of leaves and some branches as well.
The new growth looks in the beginning very healthy but as it ages through the season it gets (upwards) affected and infected by Blackspot!
I'm thinking about replacing this rose.
