Has anyone grown this rose in a pot and if so for how long? Thanks.

If you haven’t got the room but would like to grow the rose, yes, put it in a pot and perhaps every five years strike another cutting to replace it if it seems strangled. Rosette Delizy grows well from cuttings for me. Just choose a pot with a large opening, rather than a narrow one.

Is rosette delizy sterile? I don't see any descendants.

It can set hips but I haven't found seeds in those I've cut open. Nor have the Tea Book authors.

I'm finding this one to be almost completely thornless. It does a have a few, generally around 1 cm along their bases, but they are very sparse indeed. Most of the bush, currently around 1.7 metres high and wide, seems to no thorns at all.
Has anyone else noticed this?

Yes. The book Tea Roses. Old Roses For Warm Gardens p1174 says ‘Rosette Delizy’ prickles few, mostly on older branches.

Ah. Been ages since I looked at that book, and couldn't remember the details. I have come to the conclusion that the less spikey a rose is, the more I like it. :)

Might be worth tagging this one as "Thornless, or almost", since it seems to be less jaggy than some which already have that tag. IMO it's easier to work around than Cecile Brunner, for example.

Definitely! I just walked out to double check with my plant, and yep, almost thornless. I should have changed it before. Thanks for keeping us on the ball Give me caffeine.

Hardly keeping you on the ball. I haven't been active here for some time, and I only noticed all the relative thorniness of my monsters because I've finally got around to doing a big clean up on them.
