After several years (and a slow start) in my hot humid Zone 9b yard Golden Buddha has become a small but quite healthy blooming machine.

Sweet Spirit has proven to be very vigorous and quite healthy in my hot humid no-spray Zone 9b yard. So vigorous that I almost never feed it. After 3-4 years it is about 4 feet high and across and would be more except that I prune it.

It is very generous with its blooms and the color of its flowers are to me a perfect shade of magenta. It does NOT remind of a Knockout rose in any way - much more character and much more elegant than the Knockouts I see (but do not grow).

Highly recommended for a Zone 9b garden.

Cloud 10 is a truly wonderful rose in my hot humid Zone 9b yard.

Very healthy, lovely flowers and an incredible fragrance. Should be more widely grown.

A small bush, about 3' high and 3' wide that is totally healthy in my no-spray hot humid Zone 9b yard.

Has a nice repeat bloom that increases almost dramatically when I remember to feed it.

No scent that I can detect, but very pretty in bloom and quite nicely delicate in appearance year round.

Would recommend to anyone looking for a small remontant rose for a hot climate.
