I've had Sonia now for 2 years in my Denver CO metro garden. Went through the winter like a champ, survived the extreme cold snap we had (5+ days of -20deg) with about 4" of mulch at the base & the budunion is buried about 4" below the ground level. Only thing is that it STINKS! My smells horribly of pepper, so I'm sorely disappointed in that! Otherwise, great soft pink that's always happy to be blooming!

I notice that Sonia is listed for zone 7b and warmer.
We have had a grafted Sonia rose plant in our zone 5 (Sunset zone 2b), Northern Arizona garden for about 10 years. it is a generous bloomer and a vigorous grower. It suffers no extraordinary winter die-back. It is in a rather crowded, open bed of roses and miscellany. It is a charming rose.
