Lavender Morn put on another 2', and is now over 6' tall, still only 3' wide. Flowers in flushes, bearing blooms from top to bottom. I have some of these in bands if anyone should be interested in trading.

Description (grown on west coast in alluvial soil w/ wet nights, hot dry days, daytime humidity often in single digits after mid-July until November): c. 4' tall, 3' wide after 3 years in the ground. Floriferous, bearing corymbs of about a dozen blooms per stem. New foliage is bronze during spring but is bright red after mid-July every year, and nice foliage is borne down to the bottom of the plant. Dependably strong fragrance, only moderate issues with mildew here (in an area where the marine layer comes in off the Pacific, your roses will get wet every night) which makes it a good choice for either a hedge, or as I have them, worked in among other plants. Hypoestes ('Freckle-face'/'Polka-Dot plant') likes to shelter beneath them and seems to follow them around. Maybe it just likes roses, as I see it under them all over the neighborhood.

The president of the company that intro'd this rose (through Home Depot in 2008) confirmed to me today that the hybridizer was Jerry Twomey, as the Codename TWO03 would seem to indicate.
