A truly exquisite rose! My rose arrived rather small but after just a few months of care it is growing really well and has lots of buds! Got my first flower to fully open today and it smells heavenly! Its remarkable fragrance is reminiscent of sweet honey and fruit like peaches or apricots. The color starts off rather peachy pink to my eye but once it opens it has a beautiful quartered orange center. Another thing absolutely worth mentioning is how disease resistant it is, the leaves are fairly large and incredibly glossy, they look almost artificial as if made of wax - there is no disease on it at all, no black spot, mildew or rust. I will mention this rose seems to be a little on the slower side to grow and establish itself than most of the other rose I have but I don’t mind since it is so spectacular, I’m looking forward to giving this rose a special place in my garden and enjoying its beauty hopefully for years to come. Give it a try you won’t be disappointed 👍

Not quite as expected.
I had asked for the plants to be delivered the first week of April. They arrived the third - at which time I could do nothing but open the package, throw some water over them and put them in a cool dark place.
I ordered two plants. One arrived fully leafed out - which it shouldn't have been, based on 50 years of ordering bare-root plants - the other, quite dead. Not dark green and shrivelled, but dead.
When I did manage to get them out and to the pre-prepared plot, I found the root balls completely, and intentionally, impacted, compacted, and impossible to tease out. Perhaps they will grow this way, but being so ingrown, they will never produce healthy plants.
The packaging was far from professional. Using (tax-payer funded) USPS mailing enveloped for protection is simply - clever, but unprofessional. If you want to cut costs, you might consider collecting cardboard from behind shops! But this, though effective, was unprofessional.
So. I have some hope for the one plant, which has been in the ground nearly a week, and no hope for the dead one, which I planted beside it, 'in case'. In all, not what I had hoped, or expected, and a bit pricey for what I actually received.
Yet another sturdy, healthy bush that is well-rooted and ready to rock. Own root is the best!! I cannot wait to see more blooms. This is at least my 5th rose purchase and I’ll definitely be back for more.
