'Leopold Ritter' rose Reviews & Comments

I wonder if this rose is named after Leopold Ritter von Sacher-Masoch (27 January 1836 – 9 March 1895) who was an Austrian nobleman, writer and journalist, known for his "romantic" stories of Galician life, aka 50 Shades of Gray of the time. :)

I don't think so. In that case the last name would have been "von Sacher-Masoch", not "Ritter". Josephine Ritter and Leopold Ritter were godmother and godfather to the rose breeder's two sons in 1860 and 1861.

Hi
What is the repeat bloom like? Does it have the typical 4-6 week first flush followed by scattered blooms through fall? Also, I have seen various heights for this - what do you find? Looking for a big shrub/small climber size...
Thanks!

Hopefully Palatine will update their availability list at some point so that their name will show up on the Buy From tab.
