Does anyone know how tall and wide this rose (Snowfire) gets? And if there are any disease problems?

Snowfire, depending on your zone..could reach 6-7 feet in height..here in zone 5 mine is about three feet, and she seems to be subject to mildew.

Mine got stressed during a hot dry windy spell and came down with mildew. I was watering them properly but the weather got the best of us! I misted the top and bottom of the leaves with Neem oil in the evening for around 4-7 treatments (days). Such magic... Neem oil is a viable treatment that is easy to apply. Hey... I love the excess thorns; they give this Rose some personality!

Have had this bush for many years, and it is a tough bush with lots of thorns. I don't really care for the flowers, they look a little phony to me. It's not a heavy bloomer but survives in a healthy manner in a hot, dusty part of the rose garden near a busy street.

This is quite possibly the BEST dark red rose I have grown. Nice blooms, great color, and they seem hardy out here in the New Mexico heat. No problems so far.
