I have 2 baby Cardinal Humes in pots, and they do seem to be growing horizontally. Are they good candidates for pegging, say in a 12' circle if I put both of them close together in the center? They seem to get some BS, so I'm thinking they should be sprayed. Mine are own-root. How do you grow yours? Thanks. Sherry

It's much darker than my Frank Gladney. Check out this link to my other orangy/coral DL's. http://s200.photobucket.com/albums/aa105/Lavender_Lane/Peach%20and%20Coral%20DL%20Garden/ Penny

Is it a once-blooming climbing rose with really big flowers? If so, it might be 'Cupid.'

Since it has been recovering in a pot since I dug it, I am not sure that what I see is representative of its true habit -- but it has put out the long canes that you see in the last photo. I don't remember what it was like before I dug it, although it seems to me that it was not compact, but I think the homeowner had trimmed it back. The photos of Aloha do look like it -- especially the one that shows a tinge of coral in the center. The blossom has turned more lavender pink as it aged. I will add a photo of the newly opened blossom when the bud gets there.
