I am in the pacific northwest and planted this rose in 2012, it grew well and had lots of blooms in it's first year. Unfortunately whenever it rained the flowers became very heavy and sort of melted into a slimy mess. I have it in a large pot right now while i make a new rose bed against the house partly under the eaves. i am hoping this will help preserve the blooms when it rains as it is a beautiful rose with a wonderful fragrance. Anyone else have this problem with it?

StrawChicago heavy clay zone 5
I have my CPM planted in heavy alkaline clay, with a limestone layer underneath. CPM is aggressive as own-root, secret plenty of acid to go uphill into the rock-hard-clay area. No balling nor mushy problem here, despite heavy rain. It was stingy in its 1st year, then I gave it sulfate of potash and it blooms lots in partial shade (less than 5 hours of sun). Very healthy as own-root in my dolomitic clay.

Growing back strongly from its first winter at zone 5b near Syracuse, NY. Not too much die-back about 10" living above ground (never got very large its first season, I planted late...)

Crown Princess Mag. bloomed when I gave it horse manure high in potassium. As own root she's very prickly with many sharp thorns, gets large, spreading 5 to 6 feet canes, This rose needs space & water, but quite disease resistant. The bloom in hot summer is whitish beige, will be darker orange when it's cooler.

Splendid Austin rose here in the UK... Its just about perfect, actually! Vigorous, bloomy and has healthy, semi-glossy, no-trouble foliage... Beautiful petal-packed roses that hold up well to the elements and time with a delicious fragrance to boot... One of my favourites.

I have seen it growing and thriving in a Zone 5 garden. It looked quite healthy, and has lots of buds and half opened flowers.
