On your website the Soaring Flight Rose is listed for zones 6b - 9b. The supplier I'm considering purchasing from lists this rose for zones 5-9. I'm in zone 5 and wonder if this rose would do well on an east facing wall in Colorado? Please help! Thanks for any suggestions.

I am thinking about ordering "Soaring Flight" to wrap in a spiral around a corner pillar of my wrap-around porch. However, I have read that the canes of Soaring Flight are rather stiff. Does anyone have an opinion about whether this rose is pliable enough for this? Also, if it grows tall enough I would like it to arch gracefully at the porch's roof. The supplier says that it can grow as tall as 14 ft. I live in Zone 6, bordering Zone 5 (but sunny, south-facing and protected fron the north by our house.) Anyone in our zone or colder have experience with this rose (height, how prolific it blooms, etc?) Also, does the color of this rose tend to bleach out with strong sunlight? I have planted "The Impressionist" on another pillar. It is beautiful (orangy pink/gold) but by the second day of bloom the color has bleached to blush/ white, and after the third day the petals fall off. I will still keep this rose, but I would like another rose with complementary colors in a slightly deeper hue (pink/yellow/orange/salmon) and I thought "soaring flight" might be a good companion to "The Impressionist." Any thoughts on this or suggesions for other moderate/tall climbers (12 to 20 feet) of this coloration? I would like very healthy foliage that is attactive even when there are no blooms. Thank you

Moderate growth in the Northeast (5-7'). Good rebloom, slight fragrance, rather enchanting color. In coastal parts of this Zone (6b) it can be prone to various leaf-spot diseases, sometimes seriously.
