Here's a rose I like in the landscape as a plant and not especially as a producer of flowers, although the flowers are quite nice. It's just that they are small, scant, and around for a very short time. But the foliage of this rose is undeniably, yet subtly, gorgeous, as you can see, and the form is not too bad either. Upright and cane-y, yes, but not too floppy or gigantuan. I've even heard it performs pretty well in shade too, but I have not seen it in shade. A bit of a weak grower, but that's fine by me. It hasn't threatened to devour its site.
