Bare root planted in November 2023, so far:

- Very fast to repeat flowers, a literal flowering machine
- Lovely fragrance
- OK disease resistance
- Compact growth habit
- Heat tolerant

But:

- Flowers are rather small (no larger than 6cm)
- The plant itself lacks vigour, maybe due to poor soil

Overall a very nice recent creation from DA

Looks like proliferation, ie another bud forming in the middle. Some roses are especially prone to this, eg the Cecile Brunner family. Other types of flower can do it too - I've seen a photo of lots of buds forming around the edge of something (can't remember what) rather than in the middle.
It's ugly but not a disease, and you just cut off the flower if you don't like it.

Have a look at a photo of "David's Dilemma", Photo Id: 245456, where the adjacent petals are a different colour.

This is the first year of growing this rose and it's been a delight! The leaves are a bluey-green colour. The flowers are dazzling when they emerge. The shape of the bush is a full round shape. It wasn't attacked by bugs this summer, not even the Japanese Beetles, and it's had absolutely no fungus or blackspot.

What a delightful shrub rose!
