I've been growing it a year. Dumb name, but actually a fine rose. I do take issue however with the sale of this rose as a climber, which is how Star/Meilland is marketing it in Star's latest catalog. It doesn't get over five feet as far as I can tell, and is really a perfect florrie in bloom cluster form. See, https://www.starrosesandplants.com/plants/floribunda-rose/grape-jelly

This rose is listed as a climber in the Star Roses catalog.

It sure doesn't grow as a climber. Betcha it's a mistake in the catalog.
