My Stiletto is from Edmunds', own root and planted in mid-April 2021 (Chicagoland zone 5b). Did not suffer harm from May frost like many of my newbies did. It's growing quite well now - I posted a pic of 6 blooms emanating from a single large basal break. In the sun and heat Stiletto turns more mauve - it's halfway between a hot pink and a full mauve - and with smoky edges - unique and beautiful color. Nice garden rose for me, decent form but blooms probably not large enough for exhibition. Seems like it wants to be a grandiflora. No fragrance for me yet and it's advertised as quite fragrant. It's a keeper for me at this point.
