Kim –
Once my Enfant de France became established it has put on many flushes during the season. The roses smell amazing. In zone 7b in the South it has done very well and does not get riddled with blackspot. Give this rose time to grow and establish, meaning a few years and you won’t regret it. To me it’s my favorite old garden rose.
