This was an early addition that we didn't research much at all prior to adding.I was attracted by a bright hot pink bloom from across the local nursery and just had to have it. Been an over dozen years long champ for pumping out fairly large,usually well scented blooms with a minimum of distractions or coddling.Tolerates our heat well.Reliable,strong grower.Usually flowers in small clusters on fairly good sized,sturdy stems.Lasts pretty well when cut,too. Congratulations on the find and I think you'll like it.

Remove all of the leaves that are dying... and mist the other leaves as often as you can until new leaves start to grow and it gets cooler... Some plants can take being planted in the heat better than others...

Sara-ann, I hope you don't mind my insertion of another photo. This rose was awful to capture its neon-like deep pink. This was as close as I could come and it's still not spot on. Picture the open flower as deep as the darkest petal on the top bud. Then add neon. Like rosecanadian's mine did not have exceptional vase life. Wicked thorns as I remember.

I'm in Arkansas, and it's still 85 degrees here daily right now. Mild winters and hot, humid summers that begin in May and last until the end of September. Hopefully that'll be enough?? I haven't decided if I'm going to cut them or leave them. They look awfully pretty on the plant, so I can't decide! Seil, if I decide to wait, how far down should I prune this spring? My granny was an absolute master with roses, but she is 90 now, and not able to help much. Thank you for all the great info.
