Beautiful rose! I've been thinking of purchasing it. What do you feed your roses to make them grow so beautiful?

I believe this photo is made by Chris from Newflora and originally posted on Gardenweb.

It is similar but I am sure it is a different photo. In RosTom's photo, the label at the bottom is missing and there are no weeds.

A different photo, but of the same plant. One might agree, that this one is taken just a short while after the other photo in the URL. The 5 flower-buds in the center are just a little more developed.

Gibt es diese Rose nicht bei Kordes in Deutschland? Oder unter einem anderen Namen.
Is this Rose not available at Kordes in Germany? Maybe named differently?

No, so far available in US only. I currently give it another try in our German trails since it would be great having a climber of that color in our assortment. First evaluation under Northern European conditions showed borderline disease resistance only and not enough vigor to make a climber. We'll see...

Thank You for explaining and replying. Might this rose be suitable as a (solitary) shrub in Europe, instead of a climber?

I'm actually more concerned about level of disease resistance under our humid conditions. Guess we need at least another one or two years of evaluation before we'll make a final decision on introduction in Europe.

But here in Italy Quicksilver stands a good chance of doing fantastically well...also in France, Spain, etc. Kordes roses are very popular here.

I am reading GardenWeb closely. The posted photo made me go back and double check.
I will never post unless I make sure it's legit.
Judging accuracy of the photo by the presence of weeds? This is something new in plant identification :)

All my photos are legit - they have weeds...
