Let me join the praise party for Apricot Candy. My second year, own root plant is huge, disease free and a very generous bloomer in my Zone 5b garden. One of my best performing garden roses in 2022 and highly recommended.

So far, in the first year, it has been HIGHLY resistant to blackspot, and has a nice medium spicy fragrance that's really nice and drifts up to 6 feet away. I have had others which had more BS this year, due to more rain and less breeze, but this one is a trooper, and is as BS free as many of my OGR's. It seems fairly vigorous, and doesn't mind a little bit of shade.

On my plant the blooms were much larger than the 3.5" in. mentioned in the description. I'd guess more like 5 inches. The entire plant has been healthy and covered with blooms, and I'd highly recommend this to anyone. As suggested by SelectRoses, this rose does thrive in a dry climate. For me, the blooms lasted around a week, beginning with beautiful exhibition form and still looking good fully open. It did very well for me in extreme heat, as well.
