June 2, 2022. Own root plant from Rogue Valley Roses. Started as band, planted in 2018. A vigorous and prickly lady of considerable heft in the garden. Quite winter hardy; does experience die-back to varying degrees based on severity of winter. Light, fragrant and sticky moss. Moderately scented semi-double apricot-pink blooms that soon fade to near-white. Readily black spots. Little mildew here in the heart of the Great Lakes. Sets hips easily that are lovely in autumn. Easily grows 10'+ a season on new basal breaks and sometimes even large laterals. Could be trained as a climber, but I wouldn't want to touch her that much! Z5b/Sunset 41 South Central Michigan
