I expected purple color rose. It is actually magenta. Anyway it is very gorgeous. It keeps blooming within few weeks. I want to have another one.

I am in the calif high desert and am soooo pleased with this new rose. The scent is VERY similar to Sterling Silver in case you pick roses like I do for the fragrance!
It is doing extremely well and already have 4 roses in a vase and 5 more buds. And I just got it 3 months ago. Please get it back in stock. Please please please❤️

I've been growing roses for 45 years, first on East Coast (MA/MD), but extremely challenging to find roses that are scented in alkaline clay soil (used to be under sea).

Color was very pretty magenta purple with lovely shiny leaves. Scent was mild-moderate pure anise. Was a deal breaker for me (hate this scent).

Had to change all my favorite roses due to this, best in acid/east coast were Yves Piaget & Shocking Blue, honorable mention to Tiffany & Mr. Lincoln.

Here in Alkaline soil, best are Sharifa Asma (number #1 hands down), Elle, Secret, Double Delight, Sheila's Perfume Julio Iglesia, Oklahoma (but gophers adore eating roots, killed), and honorable mention to Dee-lish (not as strongly scented but unique, lovely form/gold stamens showing at finish, and super long stems for miles!/tall-upright) and Charles De Gaulle (most beautiful lavender color & form, fragrance variable but delicious-to die for when present). Mr. Lincoln had medium, Mme Isaac Pereire, Sweet Surrender & Beverly had mild fragrance.

Btw, roses that failed for scent in Alkaline soil: Lagerfeld, Big Purple, Sunbelt Savannah (though Love unique form with green button center when fully open), Sweetness (occasional mild scent), Perfume Beauty, Velvet Fragrance, Perfume Delight, & Moon Shadow (special shout down, ONLY rose I ever Shovel Pruned/others I re-homed, never grew more than 1 foot tall! here in CA where roses usually are Twice the stated size, and hate the dusky mauve color).

Other roses that had scent in East coast but not enough to keep: Jacques Cartier, Baronne Prevost, Gertrude Jekyll, Mme Isaac Pereire, Barbara Streisand (better but slightly dusky color), Fragrant Memory-Jadis, Blue Girl, Royal Amethyst, Velvet Fragrance, miniatures Scentsational & Sweet Chariot

Other roses with No scent even in East Coast: Sentimental, Dublin, My Choice (mild scent), miniature Dresden Doll
