Stars'N'Stripes will handle the full blast of the N.Ga. sun a lot better then Red Cascade. Red Cascade is a fantastic rose in a hanging pot in the morning sun.

Thanks for the post, was wondering the same thing.

At the American Rose Society gardens in Shreveport (it's so hot and humid your glasses will fog up and your shoes stick to the asphalt), Red Cascade has been used sucessfully to cover a hill slope between two 'rose rooms.' The soil there is sandy (it's a pine forest.) There Red Cascades were about five feet high and a dense growers and heavy bloomers.

Takes full afternoon sun in Tampa Bay .. mine is about 8 - 10 feet tall . ok bloom . Roots very easily
