    I’ve had mine for two seasons now and it died right down to the ground during both winters (zone 4). But it grew quickly both years when spring arrived. The flowers draw Japanese Beetles like magnets in the summer, which I don’t like – but they seem to keep them off the other varieties of roses. As soon as the temperature drops and the beetles disappear, this rose produces amazing quantities of flowers on 30″ canes.

    My Morden Sunrise, in a 5a Colorado garden with clay soil, bloomed continuously its first season. The blossoms were beautiful, of course, and the Japanese beetles found the petals to be super tasty. I got pretty good at killing beetles. The shape remained compact, and the edges of the petals varied between more orange (warmer temps) and more yellow (cooler temps). I thought my Morden Sunrise looked especially nice next to the hot pink blossoms of another Canadian rose, Winnipeg Parks. I’ve added a scrambling clematis between the two rose shrubs that should produce dark purple blooms next year. Should be a fun colorfest of bright, cold hardy flowers, and Morden Sunrise was the start of it all.

    incredibly long-blooming, repeat flushes, zone 5b, exposed to north wind in Colorado it is a super vigourous grower, 4 x 3 on rich clay soil without fertilizer other than mulch. large bright hips. does attract beatles but only for the mid part of the season, and I don’t do much about it and no one is the worse for it. Ordering more for clients.

    I stumbled upon winter hardy/Canadian roses late this summer, & was excited to find High Country Roses selling Morden Sunrise when all other U.S. sources were sold out. The USDA rates our central NH zipcode a 5b. But we live on a lake whipped by vicious northern wind & minimum temps more closely resembling 4a-4b. I was delighted with how carefully packaged & healthy the plants were when they arrived. Once planted, they consistently issued lovely little blooms in their first season here. I’m eager to see how they fare in summer 2025. My 96yo mom adores yellow roses, and Morden Sunrise more than fulfilled that wish with sunny yellow blossoms that aged gracefully at the edges into a delicate, almost pink apricot. I took many photos of the complex beauty of Morden Sunrise which I hope to capture in watercolor while the actual plants snooze beneath the snow this winter.

    This has the prettiest blossoms, with such a mix of colors, truly either sunrise or sunset inspired. My bush is not yet producing tons of blossoms, but it is young. My next door neighbor has an older one that blooms its head off! I liked it well enough to order a second one for my garden, something I very rarely do. I know it will be hardy but with global warming, I no longer have to worry quite as much about that. Even hybrid teas are now performing well in my Massachusetts garden! Who knew?

    After seeing this stunner blooming around the country, I have had it for two seasons in my NE Ohio garden zone 5-6, depending on the year, and the plant produces flowers all season and in great profusion on healthy 2-3 foot canes. I actually prune it because I have had it near other roses and want them all to have some room. I am living in NM now and will be planting it here as well. Absolutely no reservations about this rose. The blooms are gorgeous as well as somewhat fragrant.
