I've had this one for a couple of years. Everyone seems to love the flowers, though it's not my favorite. Mine does tend to blackspot here in Mississippi pretty frequently, though it trucks on with a lot of blooms. I do not notice any fragrance on it. It is a pretty vigorous plant, which is a plus. I'm indifferent to it, but because it blooms a lot and everyone else seems to love it...she stays.

I have Ay Caramba! and it is miles above it's parent Ketchup & Mustard IMO. It's also better than Burst of Joy which also has K&M as a parent. It was more vigorous than both and the coloring always got a lot of compliments by everyone. It's gaudy, and I like gaudy colors.

This rose is a beast. It is the most vigorous plant in my garden. I had multiple deer attacks over last year, and this rose barely noticed. It has come out with a vengeance this spring and has been loaded with blooms. It reminds me of Belinda's Dream regarding the ease of growing it. I don't notice a ton of fragrance, but that isn't a knock against it. I have also gotten both singles and sprays this spring. The only negative is it's hard to get a perfectly unblemished bloom as moisture does tend to cause a little browning of the edges, but nothing severe. It also makes a good cut flower and lasts and above-average time in a vase. An A+ rose for sure.

I've had a couple of plants of this rose at this juncture, and I have yet to get one to grow well. They have all just struggled along. Has anyone else had this experience? The only other rose I've struggled to grow this much is Signature.
