I would like to revisit this review in the next season. I am gardening in a humid environment in zone 7b and I think that this rose had a little black spot for us. The blooms are beautiful in spite of the black spot. To see the habit and blooms: https://youtu.be/qnaGKTMhsOw

Everyone needs at least one of these! It is such a chameleon of colors, very vigorous and does extremely well in heat and sun! It almost always is in bloom for me!

Second season in ground, and the two years have been pretty rough. She’s given a few beautiful and moderately fragrant blooms, though the deer are fond of her (bad placement perchance?) so not as many as there could have been. Hopefully she’ll continue to improve in the coming seasons. I was super happy to find her as own root so any growth will come back true. Zone 5b/6a hot and humid, poorly watered to be fair to her.

Not very blackspot resistant, but the beautiful colors in this rose make up for it. I live in Western North Carolina next to the woods.. Only the toughest roses survive!

I am in Connecticut, zone 6b/7a. I planted this rose in Spring 2022 and it has done very well in my garden. It has bloomed very well and the blooms are breathtaking!

I love this rose. In zone 10b it is healthy and gives gorgeous blooms! This rose loves sunshine and grows pretty quickly.

Gorgeous rose of many different faces! No issue with powdery mildew (we don’t have black spot issues where I live). Been a little bit slow to establish but was starting to pick up at the end of season year 2

I can’t get over the coloration of the blooms! They’re a big beautiful shape, too!

This is one of my favorite colored roses in the garden. Such a unique combination of colors, like a stunning sunset.

I bought this rose to commerate the birth of my granddaughter who was born 5 months premature in October 2019. Like my granddaughter, this beautiful rose had a rough start but I never gave up on either of them. My granddaughter is 4 years old now. This beautiful rose will not disappoint. It has the most amazing colors, like a Autumn sunset, with yellow, pink, apricot colors. It is now May 2024 and Fun in the Sun is covered with beautiful roses! Beautiful just like my little granddaughter!

Gorgeous color, healthy, vigorous, quick to repeat bloom. I planted three in a triangle fairly close together, to look like one large shrub. This was its second season, the first flush I counted 152 large fat buds that did not disappoint! They are planted south facing, plenty of sun, drip irrigation. We are zone 5b south central Nebraska. I grow many roses and Fun in the Sun is a clear favorite. It’s mid October and still flowering.
