Planted this in my zone 6 Denver yard, didn’t fertilize and only lightly amended the soil with compost, and it has been vigorous and healthy and constantly putting out little blooms. It barely noticed black spot in the unusually wet spring, was ignored by the Japanese beetles, and the extreme early heat wave did cause some of the blooms to suffer but the foliage remained green and strong and it kept putting out new growth. The smell was heavenly when I first brought it home, but so far much milder in the ground – I’ll see how it does after fertilizing and getting more established. Highly recommend!

A beautiful rose. Planted late spring of 2022 in central WI. Last summer it looked a little rough, I think because of the colder winter and spring thaws but the years before the Japanese beetles hardly bothered it when they almost killed my rugosa roses. Plant geraniums around your rose bushes if you have those pests. Since I have done that my roses are hardly bothered by them. This year she is doing amazing! The canes all died to the ground through the winter so she is short about 3 ft. but loaded with blossoms. She is not white for me, looks more like New Dawn. She has a pleasantly refreshing clean scent to her blossoms but not very strong. I am very pleased she is doing so well this year! She just needed another year to shake off her slow go last year it seems!
