I have many other petal packed roses without issues, but this one seems to be prone to balling, only a handful of blooms opened for me off two plants. The blooms that did open are beautiful with a strong fruity fragrance. Both are in full sun with no overhead rain or watering, but a coastal fog influence. I haven't seen any signs of disease common in my area- rust or PM.

I have the exact same experience, except coastal influence rather than a more serious coastal fog. I had no flowers open until the fall flush. Extremely prone to balling in my climate! However, beautiful rust free and powdery mildew free foliage. I can’t speak for black spot since that isn’t something we have in the Los Angeles Basin. The flowers are beautiful, reminds me of Evelyn, and very fragrant.

"Variety denomination: The new plant has the varietal denomination `WEKpupmobalip`.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a new and distinct variety of Grandiflora Rose. It has a non-disseminated seedling of my creation as its seed parent with the following genetic origin Pumpkin Patch x (Moonstone x Baby Love) and as its pollen parent the variety known as `WEKjucistwe` (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 31,861)."
"COMPARISON WITH PARENTS
The new rose may be distinguished from its seed parent, a non-disseminated seedling of my creation by the following combination of characteristics: whereas `WEKpupmobalip` bears very double flowers (about 54 to 146 petals) of gold suffused with pink coloration, the non-disseminated seedling bears double flowers of soft orange coloration with significantly lesser petalage (about 24 to 28 petals). The new variety bears flowers with a strong fruity and spices fragrance, whereas the seed parent bears flowers with a light tea fragrance.
The new variety may be distinguished from its pollen parent, `WEKjucistwe` by the following combination of characteristics: whereas `WEKpupmobalip` bears medium to large sized flowers (about 8.3 to about 10.7 cm. in diameter) of gold suffused with pink coloration, `WEKjucistwe` bears significantly smaller flowers (about 7.0 to about 9.0 cm. in diameter) of yellow blushing pink coloration. The new variety bears very double flowers (about 54 to 146 petals), whereas the pollen parent bears flowers with significantly lesser petalage (about 45 to 65 petals)."

I got this from High Country Roses last spring and it is amazing! Very color changing, which I love. The form and scent (fruity) are very nice. It is vigorous and disease resistant for me. It bloomed early and all the way thru until frost. I see one vendor has it for cut flowers, but I did not try that, although the flowers lasted very well on the bush.
