| Posted by Skiekitty (Denver Metro - Zone 5a) on Oct 17, 2011 8:24 PM This rose is very unfussy. It gets about 4-5 hours of direct noon/afternoon sun and that's it. I will be transplanting it to a more sunny location in 2012. Produces beautiful pure white blooms that are too heavy for the canes (canes seem to be very thin for the blooms).
