I have mixed feelings about this rose. I bought and planted him in 2019. All spring he suffered greatly (though our cool and wet spring weather was hard on all my roses) and I nearly had to give him the shovel because I was sick of dealing with the constant blackspot and blight. Since the weather has warmed up though and with some treatments, he has transformed into a healthy, beautiful showstopper with fragrant and striking blooms and beautiful foliage. I am glad I stuck it out. Buy with caution and be ready, because he can be a drama queen in hot and humid zones.

Don Juan is in his second year and doing very well. His cut flowers last longer than any of my other roses. The color is a deep blood red. He is still a little guy, but in my rocky clay Utah soil buying smaller roses and allowing their roots to find their way has been much better than bigger plants. I also wash the roots before planting which has been much better. All my roses are still small in their second year, those 3 to 4 years old shoot up and become quite stunning. Don Juan has exceeded my expectations. As I live at altitude in the dry west I have had none of the problems the other reviewer had.
