I planted Easy on the Eyes May 20, 2020 as a band from High Country Roses. It is a BEAUTIFUL rose! One of my favorites.

Closer up of flowers.
For me it is still small as it is only 3 yrs old. The first year it was cane hardy here in zone 5 CO. Last year it was a little lopsided as our -20F temps caused some die back (but it did not die to the ground). It is at the back edge of my rose bed which probably still gets adequate sun but as the tree and bush behind it get bigger it is getting less than full sun.
For me it has not grown tall so I would put it in the front of the bed where it can be a showpiece.
Even closer up view of the flowers. They are so pretty!
Here she is a year earlier, June 12, 2022.

I'm very interested to see what it does this year! So far she is very well behaved. Stays compact and controlled with no trimming from me other than to dead head off the large bouquets of flowers. We don't shape it at all and it doesn't throw any tall or long canes. I don't recall it having a fragrance but it is too low to smell so I don't know if I have checked.
CB Spray is pretty much what I think I have, Sultry. I think it should bloom a lot in sun. I thought the climber I saw was fantastic but probably a Spring bloomer.
Mine does have sprays of blooms higher than the bush. Maybe the bush form is a tidy rounder form.
Thank you. That makes sense. Mine also has the sprays higher than the bush. We just had to prop the whole thing up because it put out massive growth this spring since being in the ground and getting lots of rain. She was smothering my baby Crepuscule.
