After talking to people from the east coast to west, this rose doesn't perform very well for any of them. Pretty blooms, but doesn't want to grow, and had constant black spot for me, even after spraying. One person in Texas gave up after three plants died. I can't recommend this to anyone, but maybe someone will get lucky with it.

I would prefer first-hand experience from people who grow this rose to hear-say. In the description of the plant it says "very compact". So maybe what you call a bug is actually a feature? I don't know the rose, I 'm just not convinced quoting other people's opinion accounts for much information. No offense.

I do grow the rose. I posted the comment after I had problems, and found out other people did too. I wouldn't have said anything about a rose I don't grow.

There are many people looking for disease resistant roses that will appreciate your thoughts, Witchy. You acknowledged that it might do well for someone, so your comment is A-Okay.
This rose might do well in my area of Southern California where black spot is not an issue and roses are usually super sized here, so the compact nature might be useful in a small garden. We all have different issues. I always look for comments regarding heat and drought tolerance. But sometimes a rose just won't do well in my garden no matter how much research I did before choosing it. My friend a block away from me often has a completely different experience with a rose than I do. Go figure. Recommendations are useful, but should be taken with a grain of salt.
