Already pointed out here, but for future reference, I must emphasize this is a wickedly thorny rose, viciously so, and it's high time vendors made buyers beware of this fact at time of purchase. They should be called out on this. If growing in a pot, one must take care if moving this plant around from place to place, that you do not come into contact with the multitude of thorns all down the stems.
Younger buyers may be less concerned and regard it as all part of the territory. Older buyers might treat with some caution.

On the positive side, highly floriferous, continuous and colourful blooms, varyingly scented on good days. The blooms are held on short stems, and some are not always easy to access in amongst the clusters, which is probably just as well.

This is an honest report without any of the sycophantic waffle you might find on youtube.
