'Sheila's Perfume' rose Reviews & Comments

Here in So Cal, she is one sweet-smelling beauty. Vigorous plant, nicely formed flowers, and keeps blooming all season. Relatively disease resistant in full sun and good air circulation. Colors do lighten in warmer weather (as others have mentioned) and deepen in cooler weather. Always fragrant, but for me her fragrance gets even stronger in warmer temperatures; a wonderful sweet fruity rose scent. Excellent rose.

Wonderfully fragrant flower produced in decent numbers. The colors are good. The plant is fertile both as a seed and pollen parent. Offspring tend to be fragrant, thorny and susceptible to black spot. A top pick for anyone who loves fragrant roses. Plant grows 6 feet tall and 4 feet wide in my zone 7{NC} garden.

My Sheila's Perfume went thru her first Colorado Winter (5B) with flying colors. I gave her no winter protection, only because I ran out of time. Bud union above ground, normally I plant it below 2", but it didn't phase her a bit. Very hardy, healthy floribunda.

Does anyone know why 'Sheila's Perfume' is unavailable in Australia? I have had no luck tracking it down here.

I'm convinced it's unavailable in Charlotte, NC, US. (I don't know if they ship quite that far, but check out Edmund's Roses (www.edmundsroses.com) and hopefully you can get one. I have two and they are one of my 'staples', but I had to grab them online.
