    • This is the third year for this little landscape rose, and it surpassed my expectations... its beautiful and a real bright spot in my garden. I would love another in a different color.

    • These little plants (which you were kind enough to provide to me to test) took all the heat and drought and kept right on growing and performing and blooming! Lovely color, strong repeat bloom and minimal watering required! Great plant!
