'Raspberry Parfuma ®' rose Reviews & Comments

It’s an absolutely amazing “modern” rose in the sense that it quickly grows into a rounded, even bush with rather matted leaves, and the peduncles are rather short so that the flowers look like floating on the foliage - All of these traits create an “old rose” look just like the Portland roses. I have it planted side by side with Madame Boll and Mrs. John Laing and Fräulein Maria actually looks more “old rose” than the other two.

Concerns about heat tolerance.
User Ericchn has provided some breathtaking pictues of Raspberry Cupcake looking absolutely great in "the heat wave of 34°C in Madrid". However, different youtubers and forumers share experiences of Raspberry Cupcake being burned and fried in the Sun with the roses growing right next to them unaffected.
More people should weigh in on this issue.

I've had no experience with it apart from considering buying it because it looks quite appealing, but all I'd say is that I wouldn't consider 34°C particularly hot, and that no doubt ambient humidity must play a part in a rose's performance in any heat.

Please take into account that this variety won at Madrid rose trials in 2019, which means the testing plants were planted in autumn 2017 with a constant dripping system. By the time I took these photos in May 2022, these plants were already well established in the ground with constant and enough water supply, whereas I don’t think it’s the case in US as “Raspberry Cupcake” was only released in 2023.

This rose seems to be relatively thornless from the photos here, at least I can't see any thorns, but there are no references to it being light on thorns. Would anyone who grows it care to comment?

I have found it to have thorns and I want to say the bottom of the leaves are especially prickly but the stems are sparesely thorned. New growth does come in red and fade to green
