I'm sure that y'all have already noticed what a novice like myself (2 year roser) has noticed. That roses, not only grow differently, but are different colors in different climates. I am a person that really likes to know what the color of the rose will be in MY climate.
Is there a way that you could post the city or area of the country or countries (e.g. Northern Cal.) alongside the photo? This would really be a great addition.
Thanks for being a great site. And if you can't , you can't. Thanks, anyway.

I cannot click on a members name and display their member page, is it just on my computer? It is a very helpful tool.

Thank you all so much; this is very helpful. I've posted on a rose forum about this plant, too, and the general consensus seems to indicate that this rose is more likely to remain smaller...

According to the description, this rose can vary enormously in size-from 75 cms tall to 245 cms. Can anyone comment on this, to help me get an idea of what size it is more likely to achieve at maturity? It's so hard to decide where in the garden to place a plant when you have no clear idea of what it will be like when mature. I had the same issue with the HMF description of Purple Eden (Ebb Tide), and the responses I recieved were SO helpful,explaining that, though it is possible that plant will become fairly large it's more likely to be a pretty modest grower,so I'm hoping that some of you can weigh in with your experiences. Thank you in advance!

I grew this rose for years in Southern California and it never got bigger than about 3 feet. I think the larger size might be a mistake.

Huh. How about that. Was hard to get it to grow here at all. Maybe I just got a bad plant from the getgo. Hope all is well with you!

All is well enough. I'm losing roses to heat. It happens every year here but seems to be accelerating.
Austins tend to go berserk here. Exceptions were 'Fair Bianca' and 'Tamora'. I have few Austins left and that's ok.
Enjoying your pics..!

I don’t have the rose, but it’s one that DA U.S. used to sell. The rose tag description was “Arching shrub or climber…4’ x 4 ft. or 8 ft. as a climber” I’m not sure if that’s any help…
