This rose took about a year to establish itself and now it is non-stop blooms! This is a short shrub rose so don't place it in the back of the garden where other roses will hide it's beauty. Small flowers but a rich velvet carpet red. Grows well in the mid-Atlantic

This description of Dusky Dancer as a short shrub rose is interesting as Tasman Bay Roses (New Zealand) catalogue classifies it as a patio/climber. I recently planted it in a position where I expect it to climb, so I'm about to find out!

I grew it for years. It was a 4' x 4' green ball, with miniflora-sized foliage, and large sprays of miniflora-like blooms of black-red. No scent, but tons of blooms. Very vigorous, too, but it always stayed at 4'.

Five feet has been the extent of mine, two years on from my last post.
