I have seen this lovely rose in spring at the Sac Cemetery open garden, but am wondering if you could tell me how the bloom holds up in heat. We live just north of Sac and many roses have blooms that crisp and turn brown when temps rise above 90 degrees in the dry heat. Also, I would love to know if rebloom continues in heat. Thanks!

I don't think that any rose really continues to rebloom when the temps get above 90. I don't grow Le Pactole myself, but based on my recall, it has two flushes before the high temps of the summer affect it. It definitely has a fall flush as well. Most roses will crisp in temps above 90. I take that as a given. Just one of the downsides of our climate.
