Makes for a very nice little addition to the patio furniture and livens it up back there.. Has done very well with a little rose food every month or so.. always blooming. Just pruned it back a little a few days ago hoping I didn't over do it. But I absolutely love this rose.. I plan on buying a few more.

Heavy spring blooms, followed by 2 to 3 slightly impressive waves of repeat blooms the rest of the year. I was expecting more frequent blooms. When in bloom, it's quite a sight. Have to remove the dead buds quite religiously, else most buds form hips. Overall happy, over wish it would bloom more often.
