Extremely disease resistant here in Atlanta. It blooms really are a combination of both Dee-Lish and Lady Of Shallot. So far, it is an excellent cultivar.

I would love to know how this one is holding up for you in terms of disease resistance, and whether you have any opinions about the scent. I've hesitated to try it because both parents have proven to be highly prone to blackspot in my garden, and while the parents each have strong and beautiful fragrances to offer, it doesn't sound like this rose is especially fragrant.

It's fairly disease-resistant and only mildly fragrant. The color is nice, but it's extremely slow to repeat. I've had it for several years and it hasn't made much of an impression on me. Unless it improves over the summer, I will be re-homing it this fall.

Thanks, that's very helpful information! I won't go out of my way to try this one, although the photographed color is striking and the disease resistance sounds much better than I would have guessed. It must have benefited from one of those lucky genetic pairings that somehow allowed it to exceed both of its parents.

Lineage = Dee-lish x Lady of Shallot per the Antique Rose Emporium website.
