Does 5-6 hrs. of sun a day apply to the whole rose bush or would it be enough if the sunligh only reaches the top of the plant?

90 percent of the bush should be in full sun for 5-6 hours each day.
There are varieties which don't mind some shade such as Darlow's Engima, that might be the direction to go.

Good luck

Thanks for the reply. The rose I have is Cecile Brunner Cl. It will most likley get enough sun to the upper portions but not much around the roots and because it's a rambler would it not seek out the sun. My main thought was the ground around the base of the plant my not get enough warmth.
