An absolute stunner - mine is in a boulevard in a city setting, and it has absolutely exploded. I remove 1/3 every year and it grows like crazy. The foliage is super healthy and the blooms stop people in their tracks.

I do nothing to winter-protect it and haven't lost a single cane to a Minnesota winter. It does sucker somewhat but nothing unmanageable.

Yeah, I've seen a little of that - sometimes I have to trim it back a bit from the sidewalk, and it seems to send new growth up along that edge of the cement. I'm always just amazed how it leafs out every year to the very tip of the canes - it has suffered no dieback whatsoever, which is just incredible.

And yes, the blooms...wow. The form is just incredible. I need to get some of my pics up here, ha.

A full double rose that is also really flat, like chopped with a knife. The color starts as a rich and saturated crimson tone, but can fade to purple in clay and finally expose a green excavated central circle. It looks huge in photos, but is not much bigger than the other Gallica (All this group have relatively small roses).

The shrub is disease-free and undemanding as long as is correctly grafted and can not run wild. A real beauty in all stages of the life of the flower. I love it.
