wirosarian_z4b_WIUpdated Definitely not Sunrise Sunset. Since SS is an Easy Elegance rose, possible it is another EE rose that was mislabeled?....looks a lot like my EE rose Kashmir, another good rose.

margaretbkUpdated I'll try it. Good idea, if anyone is listed as growing it. I'm confused as to why this rose has fallen so far into obscurity. It's a beauty, vigorous and gives me LOTS of blooms. Fragrant as well.

enchantedrosez6aUpdated SoFLRose10, thanks for the suggestion. I didn't want to use 2 of 3 different roses since I tend to plant in couples or threes. This way I'll still have 3 First Crush left. Kate~ I went with your and Seil's suggestion: 3Princess An...
