This rose is beautiful when it blooms....but that is awfully rare. It is ravaged by blackspot and spends most of the season defoliated, despite spraying and systemics. I'll give it this, it keeps coming back in my zone 5b garden each year despite its poor health. I really love the blooms....they seem to glow from within....and the chance to see it once a year is enough to keep me from shovel pruning it.

Sixteen Candles is generous in its quantity of blooms and its repeat blooming, and it was quite hardy and disease resistant in my Southern California garden. Unfortunately, the blooms were a disappointment; they had no staying power, opening and blowing their petals almost overnight, and were smallish in size. In fact, a neighboring mini actually rivaled some of the blooms. The color of the blooms of Sixteen Candles was definitely pretty, though. The ultimate drawback for me was the fact that my plant was very rangy, and insisted on sprawling out of the garden into the neighboring sidewalk. All in all, not a keeper.

New Generation Roses are Jackson Perkins own root roses, not roses budded onto rootstock. I don't know why they coined a new term instead of using long-accepted usage. You can read about them on the JP website.
