Bella Donna is a wonderful rose for z6b in Virginia and is well adapted to our climate. She blooms once and is covered in fragrant blooms that pull her canes to the ground. When she is well fertilized she suckers freely. She gets some blackspot but not until after the spring flush.

This rose has some of the most incredible structured blooms, but the plant is not very vigorous in my garden. Also seems somewhat subject to canker.
