In danger of being lost. On the cusp of lost for certain here in the US.	REPLY

Bloom color is similar to Fragrant Cloud---vermilion with a reverse shading almost purple-y. Foliage is stunningly gorgeous---big, dark green, extremely glossy.	REPLY

You are growing this beauty? May I ask how you obtained it?	REPLY

I got the 2 small bands available when Vintage went out of business last year. 1 band died--it was too small to have even been sold if you ask me. The second one is finally growing and beginning to do quite well. I am hopeful I will have some budwood at the end of the month so I can have it custom budded and get some more of this rose out there! It is quite lovely. The foliage, as I wrote, is stunning.
