As the hybridizer of this rose I have had the opportunity to observe this rose. During the life of this rose the weather conditions have been extremely hot and dry. While this rose benefits from some shade in my garden it has proven to be heat tolerant. This rose is very easy to root and produces a good root system. I am currently using this rose in my breeding program; it sets hips easily and the pollen is also very productive. I have observed that this rose tends to pass on good roots to its offspring.
