| Here this rose is blooming right now. Here is a picture (I could only capture about 1/3rd of the blooms, it is so big) of an old one which grows next to a bike path with no care- Jackie |

| Wow Jackie! Glorious! Mine is about one foot tall and 3 feet wide... Can't wait until I see it blooming like this. It will take a couple of years...or ten. Thanks for the pic. Anybody knows if it's a reasonably fast grower? Nik |

| Holy Smoke! That is so pretty. It looks like a fairy tale. I planted one last year and it grew quite a lot. Even better: it made it through our extreme winter when I was zone pushing to begin with. I am excited to see what my little one does this year. |
