Can anyone tell me how Sunset Celebration does in a hot climate? I see that it was bred in England, so I hesitate to try growing it in zone 9. Do the flowers or leaves burn in hot weather? (I have a couple of roses whose flowers shrivel and leaves get brown edges as soon as summer weather arrives, and I don't want to end up with more of those.) Also, is Sunset Celebration very thorny?

Hello,
I'm sorry to react so late, but I live in zone 6b.
I react because this rose is growing at my place in full sun in front of the brick house-wall and is surrounded by stone pavement.
Even though it became a lot of sun the last two years, (and it gets very hot at that place) it never got burned or shriveled petals!
It's a beautiful rose, but one would expect/like more fragrance!
It is very disease resistant at my place.
The first years, at least, it needs some watering.
Maybe some HMF site-visitors, from hotter zones, can supplete this reaction?
