I've had this rose just 2 years; growing on the Gulf Coast. Very fragrant, OK but variable quality of blooms, in terms of shapeliness. White with pale yellow centers. No disease problems. The plant itself is very slow-growing. Mine has yet to grow 2 feet tall. Average bloom production. I'm dissappointed in the lack of growth but will give it another couple of years, as it is a rare variety and wonderfully fragrant.
