This rose does extremely well in zones 9-10. It blooms non-stop from April to December. It does get a little powdery mildew when it's cool at night, but it's manageable. The flower also does well as a cut-flower. The beautiful creamy-white blooms look great with other white or pastel roses.

This rose was sold to us by a nursery in zone 5 (Ohio), with the promise that it was hardy here. It is not. In fact, neither its summer performance, nor its winter hardiness, was very good in this climate. We are having better luck with White Lightnin', another white grandiflora with similar bloom characteristics.
