Sandy Hook is a constant bloomer as 11th-year own root with powerful old rose and red wine scent. I enjoy this rose MORE than my red Austin own-roots such as Munstead Wood, the Dark Lady, the Squire, William Shakespeare 2000, Tess of d'Ubervilles. It's small and compact at 1.5' x 1.5' plus thornless plus drought and heat tolerant (pic. taken in full sun & over 90 F heat). Rabbits eat Munstead Wood instead of thornless Sandy Hook (leaves are more bitter). This rose is best for hot & dry but can be healthy if doused with sulfate of potash in high rain weeks. It roots easily in closed plastic humid bin like Evelyn .. both have vigorous roots for my rock-hard clay.
