I planted April Love in Fall of 2023. She grew extremely fast, gave me a baby bloom within 2 weeks. She throws out very long, octopus type canes. I wanted to grow her as a shrub but her canes were not really cooperating, so I now have her trained to climb. She seems to be very happy and has been blooming a lot. She bloomed all throughout my harsh Texas summer (zone 9b, triple digit summers) She is an absolute delight and I highly recommend you add her to your collection!

Thank you so much heirloom roses! I watched your video on how to transplant my new roses, I did exactly how you instructed and in one week they are looking amazing! 10 stars! I will be buying more! Look at the pictures and how healthy they look in just one week!

The name got me to buy it the first time. My Dad's birthday was in April, so is my grandson's, who was named after my Dad. My great grandson was to be also born in April. So April Love just seemed appropriate for me. But the second time I bought it was for the amazing fragrance and abundance of blooms. Both bushes are growing so well for me in zone 6b even after winter.

I think I've had this one for 3-4 years. The plant wasn't that impressive at first, one or two really tall canes with flowers at the top. Now its very full, the flowers are just gorgeous. The photo below is what passers by see on the sidewalk.

I bought it about 3 years ago. It bloomed in the hot Texas summer and it smelled wonderfully.
