Solar Flair is wonderful in the garden and eminently suited for exhibition both in the single bloom and spray classes. This rose thrives in our coastal climate which allows the magnificent colors to develop fully. Remontancy is excellent. There are some downsides. In our clime she needs protection against powdery mildew. The foliage tends to discolor when sprayed with some of the fungicides. The rose will do fairly well on its own roots but greatly benefits from budding. She makes a splendid tree rose.
