What a beautiful rose. I can tell you that as a climber you have one of the easiest roses around. Climbers are very disease resistant and will perform well almost anywhere even in partial shade. There is also very little pruning required. Make sure your rose is not crowded and has good drainage. Give it someplace to climb with a good deal of morning light and just watch it bloom. At first you will have to water it frequently, about every other day for the first few weeks. After that maybe once a week, however, by the next season you won't have to water at all. Make sure you water the roots and not the rose bush because they don't like getting wet. Also, best to water early in the morning so that if the bush does get wet the sun will dry it. I don't have this rose, but I think I'll get one now after seeing how beautiful it is. Well, I hope this helps. From what I've read this rose will take care of itself.
OMG...I'm so excited about this rose. Thank you for posting this question.
