This is an extremely thorny rose with long, naked leggs. The flowers smell incredible! My plant gets to be six feet tall pretty quickly and produces blooms regularly, though heat does shrink and flatten them quite a bit.
Jackson Perkins is offering this rose with Laura Bush for the 2007 season. It is a rose I would recommend to anyone looking for a all around solid performer to try. The blooms have lasting power in a vase or on the bush. The color changes as the bloom ages, and it has a nice form.
