This is a most striking rose and the colors are magnificent. My rose is located under the eaves of a massive pecan tree and the shade does not deter this rose from putting on a brilliant display. Actually, I believe the shade helps conserve the colors. The blooms are borne in sprays on an arching and thorny bush which can get as large as 5 x 7. It can also be used as a climber to 15 feet. Disease resistance is good and fragrance is strong.
