I was shocked to see this rose only has a Good rating on here and was reading through the comments and wanted to add my thoughts on this rose. In my zone 7a east coast zone it is exceptionally healthy. Very dark, thick, glossy leaves that don't seem to catch anything here in my no spray garden. I have mine nestled in with some peonies that get very bad mildew by the end of the season and this bush didn't show any signs of either mildew or blackspot, even in fall which is extremely unusual.

It's older blooms are susceptible to botrytis, in part I think because the flowers last so long on the bush (2 - 3 weeks) and also due to their deep petal-packed cupped flowers. If rain happens the water has difficulty escaping and just sits inside the flowers. I wonder if giving it a shake after rain might help with that.

There is a green tint on the outside of the rose on the guard petals that fades moving in first to a nice creamy white color and then a very intense pink in the middle, similar to the pink in Eden - they match really well. Makes a fantastic cut flower, but has no fragrance.

Mine does not ball, even during the rainy month of August. Reliably opens, although it does take an awful long time to fully open (5 days to a week). It does repeat bloom, not super fast though but that might be because I leave the flowers on it for a while. Might repeat faster if you cut the blooms.
