Thanks, Peter!
not only "gorgeous" but also popular for its unusual rhubarb scent.

How does it behave in the rain ? I fancied Giardina and Jasminia but some people have posted that they ball up and go to mush in the rain because they are so crowded with petals. We get plenty of rain where I am :-(

It's doing reasonable well in rain - at least compared to many other highly fragrant roses, that tend to have rather soft petals.
In normal years (not so recently) we have plenty of rain as well in Northern Germany - ideal conditions for a strict selection process on disease resistance and rain firmness.
Stay safe, Thomas
