This is simply an exquisite rose, with a bush that has a constitution of steel. It is the most disease resistant of all the roses in our garden. Unfortunate, the longer canes succumbed to the winter of 08-09, when temperatures were -15C for prolonged periods. Never mind - it rebounded wiithin this first first season.

This picture was taking at the Rose Garden in Portland, OR 6/22/07. I couldn't believe how prolific the blooms were. They reminded me of a wedding bouquet. Very beautiful.
