HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Anyone growing this in a partial shade location? I've about run out of sunny spots, except for full afternoon sun, which is no good for roses in our 95-110 degree summers.

Won't likely be as glorious as in full sun, but I've observed two large, sturdy specimens growing right next to a wall which does provide partial shade. Since your summers are hot I don't think you'll have many issues. I have observed black spot on these plants frequently, but it is not one to defoliate, you'll just have, well, some black spots. specially if your heat is dry rather than wet. It should live! I think this would be much more of an issue if your summers were mild.
Roots very easily too. I have 8 new plants with roots now, cut the stems in late December. If you at some point get a sunny spot, root a cutting and put it there haha.

If Carolina Mary (below) says this rose is disease resistant, can that be added to the description, or is more evidence needed?

It's pretty free of disease in the sub-tropics, but then a lot of Teas are.

Updated information:

This one hasn't got off to a particularly fast start, which is not that surprising as it was one of the smallest when I got it.

However, progress is steady and the bush is healthy. It looks like it will do well with more time.

Got to sniff mine, after the bees knocked off for the day. I wouldn't call it strong (have to disagree with Chapman et al here) and agree with HMF's rating of moderate. It's a good scent though. Very distinct Tea coming through, with a few fruity and floral bits to back it up.
