rosaceaeUpdated My prime concern with RMV is that it may hinder my plants' longevity. My Charles de Gaulle for example, is growing wonderfully. I'm afraid I'd wind up losing the marvelous, big, free blooming bush it points to becoming in 10 years...

jasminerose4u, California 9bUpdated Hi Beth. My Glowing Amber was a newly rooted cutting that I should have grown in a plastic pot at first. It's good to hear that it can take hot conditions. Maybe I will try it again. Have fun with your new roses :)
