In the desription, it says that this rose "can be pruned to maintain a shorter habit". I would like to try this-what do I do? cut it back by one-third,as is sometimes suggested for Austins? Thanks in advance !

I grow "Portland from Glendora", which is thought by some rosarians to be Joasine. Mine does send out long canes. I have cut it back by about 1/2, and will likely do so again this year.

Tends to spread roots in our yard, popping up 2 feet away, so it might be considered a bit invasive. Growing up our 6 foot fence without a problem. Lots of thorns.

'Joasine Hanet' im Handel und Fundrose "Glendora" sind wohl identische Rosen, aber nicht die 'Joasine Hanet', die Vibert 1847 gezüchtet hat. Denn laut The Rose Garden, 1848, S. 108 ist diese "purplish red" und laut Wesselhöft, Der Rosenfreund 1866, S. 149 "leuchtend purpurroth". Auch wenn "Identification as Joasine Hanet is accepted by the ARS". Ich schließe mich dann doch lieber den Zweifeln von "several expert rosarians" an. In Sangerhausen steht eine 'Joasine Hanet', die eher den frühen Farbbeschreibungen entspricht.

I have added an English translation of Flodur's comment as I think it should be available to more people.
'Joasine Hanet' in trade and the found rose "Glendora" are probably identical roses, but not the' Joasine Hanet 'that Vibert bred in 1847. Because according to The Rose Garden, 1848, p. 108, this is "purplish red" and according to Wesselhöft, Der Rosenfreund 1866, p. 149 "bright purple". Even if "Identification as Joasine Hanet is accepted by the ARS". I prefer to join the doubts of "several expert rosarians". In Sangerhausen there is a 'Joasine Hanet', which corresponds more to the early color descriptions.

I've grown 'Joasine Hanet' for about 12 years. It is disease resistant, yes, to everything but rust. No other rose rusts as enthusiastically or profusely. Twice a year I strip off nearly every leaf, and it always returns looking as lovely and healthy as ever--until the rust strikes again. Twice I was determined to dig it out and toss it, but the loveliness of the rose and its scent has enslaved me.
