I stopped off at one of the nurseries in town and saw that they had all their leftover roses on sale. They had 'Dream Come True', and thanks to your comments, I passed on it.. It was thorny to beat all get out. They had nothing else that was terribly interesting, which is just as well.
Funny, I don't think of New Dawn as excessively thorny. Mermaid, Happenstance, Ballerina all used to shred my arms and anything else they could grab on to.. Fortuniana manages to nail me pretty bad on a regular basis.. Maybe it's not so much the quantity, but the shape.
