Congratulations on successfully moving it to a pot during summer! Being that it's going to be growing in hot dry Texas I think I'd try for a little afternoon shade since you won't be there to water it that often.

Roses will take full sun if they get plenty of water, but will do well and bloom on 4 to 6 hours of sun especially if the shade is bright or dappled.

Also I'd wait until fall to transplant it to its new location so it will have all winter to grow roots to be able to take every two week or so watering.

Hopefully we'll have some rain to help it along this coming winter and spring. Wishing you the best!

Fourth of July climbing rose ...

Thanks so much for the link and your advice, Roselee. Always welcome. Man, all those shoot leaves are opened out today! I think this thing may have needed a rejuvenation, for sure! This is a good sign. And I will wait until it cools down a bit to plant it out at the cabin.

I've never seen a rose with these beautiful colors......gorgeous!

I can't wait to see it when it's planted.

Good idea to wait until the temps go down a little.

I hadn't seen the striped ones before this one either, Meme. Didn't like it at first, when it finally bloomed, but it has kinda grown on me. It makes small sprays of blooms which is nice. Very visible from across the yard. I have spotted some perfect part sun/part shade chain-link fence spots that will allow for training it horizontally (to force more branches) to its maximum 10'-14' branch length.
