    Most hybrid musks are shade tolerant, and Dancing in the Wind is no exception. It's growing under my monster wisteria in the front of my garden, near the mailbox, and my mail carrier has had to leave me more than one note asking me to cut back some of the branches because the rose seems to expand overnight. Left to its own proclivities, it might spread out more than 10 feet in every direction. The blooms are a wonderful blend of colors, best described as peaches and cream, and they literally cover the rose bush, nearly obscuring the foliage, for much of the year.
