This was one bought a year ago when the rose bed was put in the front yard. It struggled a little right at first to get settled, but it took. It seems to have weathered the winter well here. We do not have blooms yet, but there is plenty of new growth in the leaves & stalks. We are hopeful for new blooms soon.

We bought this rose last year and had it growing in an old whiskey barrel. It did OK. After it had finished flowering last year, we transferred it to the main garden and mulched it well.

We are in Zone 5, so we were kind of worried that it might not return this year, but it has and it is doing well. It was the first of the season to begin growing, and the first of the season to bloom.
