This is probably my most disappointing winter loss. It was an own root and looked like it had made it, sent up a few leaves, but then those new leaves just died back with a late frost and that was that. I've left it in the ground in case it tries again. It was starting to set leaf buds when we got an ice storm and that was just the end for it.

I liked this one, but I couldn't find any zone information on it. It did not survive winter in my zone 5 yard. We did have a really bad ice storm in March that was probably a contributing factor. For a bit there, it looked like it might make it, but, then browned the rest of the way. If I run into it in the body bag roses again, I would pick up another but immediately try to root an own root cutting of it instead.

I loved this rose and gambled on it despite the zone 6b recommendation. It did not overwinter in zone 5. Too bad! It was such a beauty last summer. I'm still considering gambling on an own root one and trying some crazy overwintering tactics because it was just a cool rose.

Was pretty, did not overwinter in zone 5a. Mine was grafted, could be that an own root would have made it. This was it's first winter and it did not even try to come back in spring. Winter wasn't too cold- but, had a severe ice storm in March.
