| This rose is so bright orange my camera can't handle it...lol I'll try later to get a better pic... I had to moderately prune it in the Spring. We had many late freezes this Spring which slowed things... The bush is already 3ft tall X almost 3ft wide which is its mature size according to Heirloom Roses. Last year it bloomed non stop until fall... Planted in May of 2011... So far has been disease resistant here but time will tell...
Ok I tried taking another pic and it seemed to come out a bit better than the first...

| I know what you mean about those intense colors. My reds always bleed all over the photo also. If you like bright orange, you certainly have picked the right rose for you. We look forward to seeing it grow up! Kate |

| Lovely looking. My camera has problems with reds too. |

| Love the bright orange, way to make a statement! Looks like a very healthy plant and vigorous grower. Andrea |

| I have 2 larger and 4 still baby bands of this rose planted out front of the house. So next year there will be a lot of orange out there...lol |

| Out front of our house we will have a sea of orange next year... Gotta figure out what companion plantings I'm going to use also with orange colors...

| Ooooh, I love the intensity! Beautiful. I think reds would look nice, but I love bold blends. Have fun with that one, it will be going on my want list! |

| I don't think you could have picked a better color for that spot. Well done! Carol |

| I had alittle set-back with the front bed. The end of June & into July we received nearly 10 inches of rain which waterlogged the SAH roses. Leaves turned yellow from waterlogging but they did not drop off the bushes... (Good thing...lol) One SAH did get moderate BS but it is releafing fairly quickly...
