We have 3 or 4 bushes of this rose, it is so colourful in flower, quite
eye catching, and rather easy to grow... here is some notes about the
use of this rose in an urban environment..

"Adelaide has over 40,000 roses growing in its public places, thriving in its hot, dry summers. These landscaping roses are specially bred to be resistant to disease
and pollution and easily maintained by the municipal authorities. Thickets of the roses form 'living fences' that are much more attractive than barbed wire.

The idea of landscaping with low-maintenance roses evolved in Paris in the late '70s - early '80s when it was decided that the city needed more colour in its streets.
The Meilland family of rose-breeders was asked to develop suitable roses and spent 10 years perfecting hardy, streetwise yet colourful roses".

Bred in France and released onto the market 1990, the year I started my rose garden.
