Acquired as a healthy, but less than 1 year old rooted plant this year. Planted in the ground and it had 2-3 blooms, but struggled and started to die back. Moved to a pot and it's looking much healthier with lots of new growth in <1 month. When in the ground, it was struggling wtih black spot, but after moving to the pot (the pot is sitting in the same spot where it was planted in the ground), I'm not seeing any BS (presumably because it's healthier now). The blooms it did have were small and shattered within 1-2 days, but were pretty while present. It's still very small, so I'm curious to see how it performs once more established.

How is your rose doing now?

I had a similar experience-it flourished in a pot, and then, not so much in the ground. I’ve tried a few different spots-it’s now in a location most roses would love, but it’s still not thriving. It’s only maybe 8” tall after, um, 2 or 3 years. Is it a very hungry plant?

The performance you're describing means this doesn't generate a very vigorous root system and would definitely improve if budded. Growing it in a pot would benefit it due to increased heat compared to the colder soil; better soil (potting v. garden soil) and likely more attention to its needs than it would probably get in the ground. You should try budding it and see for yourself.
