A tad over 5' (1.5m), my neighbor has one of similar height but almost 6' wide.

Thank you. I don't have a lot of space width wise, so I hope I can train it up.

Mine's slenderness requires but minimal intervention, as it was achieved by crowding!

Nice blossom shape, but a bit of an unruly grower -doesn't sucker but does spread by tip-rooting if branches are allowed to enter the ground.

May as well add for those considering it, 'Pristine,' up against the west side of our house, is one of the few roses that thrive here without any morning sun, though she has full midday and generous afternoon doses, so she does get from 4 (Dec)) to 7½ (June) hours of direct sun a day. She grows to circa 8½ feet / 2½ meters after being pruned down to 5 or 6 feet yearly.

Mirabile dictu, my 'Pristine' blossoms all have 'the' smell this year, lasting until after the blossoms crisp or till they blow.
