Blooms well here in Sydney, Australia. Fragrance is strong and pleasant. Doesn't seem too bothered by heat, doesn't suffer too much from disease, does get BS. It's structure is fairly twiggy rather than bushy.

Relatively good seed and germination rate.

Beginning of winter here and this is one of the very few rose that is still blooming as if it were spring, granted the temp here is the equivalent of spring in many places. Most other roses have slowed down, stopped or are producing less showy blooms and fewer of them.
