Fabulous from the start. Even better a year later. Great rose.
I had my heart set on some other roses and put Memorial Day in my cart on a whim; and I’m so glad I did! I’m in 9b northern CA and my yard has a fair amount of full sun with some dappled shade at certain times. This rose bloomed later than my others - in late May, true to the name - and since then had been a great performer. Large, multi petaled blooms with sturdy petals last more than a week with little fading; in the vase they also last several days up to 10 days! They are a ballerina pink and some have frilly petals. The fragrance is true classic rose. The plant is very vigorous and has put out several large new canes. It blooms in flushes and in several to a stem. I’ve not had issues with disease nor pests (other than leaf cutter damage). Really a lovely rose.
It has big beautiful blooms for the second time this year. And this year is the first year for this rose!
