    This rose is so easy to grow in SoCal, no problem, no spraying, repeat flowering.

    This is the most productive and prettiest rose in my garden. It's subtly fragrant and blooms from late March until November. I'm in Southern California. Grows up to 5 feet tall, and in my garden it's in part sun.
