This rose has been quite disease resistant in Portland, Oregon.

I wonder if you could add some cultural details - sun exposure? soil pH? amendments? spraying? etc. - Most other people seem to have miserable luck with this rose, so if you've discovered the right conditions that it needs we would all benefit from knowing what they are....

Culturally, all it would need is what it received from it's breeder in S. France. It needs to be in an arid climate, maybe the Portlander keeps it under glass?

That will be nice, if true...but it seems from what others say that even in a desert-y climate this rose can BS badly...I'm going to give it a try and hope to keep it healthy with milk spray....

It's completely clean of disease (blackspot is unknown in my high desert garden), vigorous, and very cold hardy in my Spokane, WA beds. Dry climate and alkaline soil seem to agree with it.
