'New Dawn' rose Reviews & Comments

I am debating planting New Dawn in my zone 6 humid coastal Massachusetts garden. The area (my garage) faces east but my house obstructs it and shades it. The morning sun hits it up higher. Then around 1:00 it gets sun exposure until 5:00- from the South. The garage is white and pale yellow. I know a deeper pink would look best, but, I struggle to find one that checks all the boxes. I was hoping for a repeat bloomer. My kitchen window looks right at this area. I desire a hardy disease resistant (black spot can be a problem). I have grown honeysuckle and clematis for years in this area. They would have to all get along. Also, I have Earth Angel and Scepter Isle nearby, so I think New Dawn wouldn’t clash. Finally, there are deep blue hydrangeas and blueberries at the ground level. Kind of a New England cottage look. Do you think Nee Dawn is the way to go?

You really can’t go wrong with New Dawn. I have them growing in several shaded and non-shaded Z6b areas, and they are pretty much unstoppable. Here’s the two on my garage, they get only about 5-6 hours direct sun.

Have you considered 'Parade'? It grows rapidly, with excellent repeat bloom. The color is a darker, brighter pink than ND.
