Amazing.
It never looked good here. I got rid of it.

Robert, you wouldn’t know if it’s fertile, would you? I got one this spring; I might try some crosses, but don’t want to waste my time. There are no descendants listed.

Hi Lee,
Sorry, no I never tried. I don't like using roses with unknown lineages because it's hard to know what direction to take them. It mildewed among other things.
Like most I would assume at least pollen fertile. Then go from there.

Thanks, Robert. I understand concerns of unknown parentage, but I’m of an age where it’s now less about long-term planning, and more about hitting the lottery ;-)

We're both at that age. That's all the more reason to choose wisely! ;-)

Brown to the ground for me in zone 5b. Not really a surprise as it's rated for zone 7- but I enjoyed it for the season and bought on bare root clearance at Home Depot. I'll update if it actually grows again- but as of April 19 it looks pretty gone.

Brown to the ground for me- first winter in zone 5b. Not sure if it's still alive or not, but April 19 2025 it's completely brown. I'll wait and see.
