Definitely a favorite. No BS in the hot humid deep South, and never without blooms--gorgeous blooms that stay that way on both the bush and in a vase. Very easy to grow--no Diva this one. Love it.

Based on everyone's comments I planted this rose last year. While it bloomed like crazy, it was decimated by blackspot each year. I live in the NY area, and with all the rain we've gotten, this rose was totally covered with blackspot. I finally gave up and removed it. A real disappointment considering how many blooms it had.

Try Milano Kolorscape. Similar color and size, without the healthy issues and mean prickles.

This is one of my favorites. I'm in zone 9 with high heat and humidity and it performs non-stop. I've had it for 6 years, and it has never disappointed me.

... but you've not added it to your HMF "Favorites / Recommended" list ?
In addition to listing you favorites for other members to peruse, we total the favorite votes to list the plants with the most favorite / recommended votes. The same for the plant ratings.
Adding a plant (or nursery, garden, etc.) to your favorites list is very easy and almost instantaneous. Just the click the ADD TO FAVORITES button near the top of every page.
Voting for your favorites is a great way to help participate in making HMF better for everyone.

I can't tell how to use the favorites.

On the Description page, there's an "Add to favourites" button just beneath where it says "'Hot Cocoa ™' rose Description". First button on the left. ;)

It can be a little confusing because it's so quick: Note when you click the ADD TO FAVORITES button it immediately changes to DEL FROM FAVORITES (short for DELete). This indicates you have recorded the currently displayed item as one of your favorites and you now have the option of removing it from your Favorites List should you so choose to (eg - maybe you selected something as a favorite but didn't mean to).

I live in zone 5 in a yard that has horrendous blackspot, and my Pretty Lady is positioned so that she gets watered overhead by my automatic sprinkler system, yet she remains completely blackspot free for me. She is slow to repeat, though.
