Never before drawn to roses, State of Grace changed that for me. I purchased one last year when it was released and was blown away by the beautiful and continuous blooms! It over-wintered well here in zone 7 and I purchased another this year because it's so striking. It has a compact and full shape, and is frequently covered in blooms. Each bloom is different and changes daily through shades of apricot and pink. A great rose to keep near the front door where visitors can be greeted by its loveliness.
It has a pleasant fragrance if you sniff the flowers, but won't be one you smell just by walking past it. So far no issues with disease. Handles the summer heat (100+F) and brutal west-facing sun like a champ!
