Oh, it's beautiful!! Now I wish I had ordered that variety!! The fragrance sounds captivating!!

How pretty! The fragrance is also very enticing to me. I think I’m gonna have to put this one on my Palatine list.

That is really a beautiful color

So beautiful!! I will not be missing out on this next year , that’s for sure !

I think I will be adding this beauty next year!!! Thanks for being the guinea pig on this one!! I'm glad you got it!!

Thanks for posting your pictures. I bought this one as well. It recently went in the ground as a bare root so I am quite a bit behind you. I hope mine looks is pretty as yours. Looking forward to seeing more of your photos throughout the season.

What a beautiful rose. Kitty you need this one just because of your doggie

Krisitne - you are so right!!! Good thinking!! :) :)

Can someone tell me where to buy this rose in the US? Thanks.

I like the pine straw mulch in your photo, Sunny.

No one has yet mentioned that this rose won the Royal National Rose Society Torridge Award for the Best Rose Raised by an Amateur - in 2016.

Well, I got this one planted yesterday. I hope it does well. :) :)

My Coyne, I've only seen it available from Palatine in Canada, but they ship to the US. They change their listings each year though so it might not always be available

Thank you. I just look at Anastasia from Palatine. They said they only ship to North America; I think it included US :-). However, it is out of stock right now. Thanks.

Hi friends! Here is Anastasia’s first flush this year. Second year in the ground. Look how clean her dark, glossy leaves are on the bush shots! Incredible. I do not spray and live in basically a sub-tropic zone with blackspot, ceraspora, and powdery mildew. But look at Anastaisia! Still can’t believe her leaves look like this. And the blooms are holding up well on their stems this year. Like one of the few who are not bare naked ladies in the garden haha! Oh yes, and this is after an overhead watering with the sprinkler. Dont judge me haha!

Beautiful!!

Sunny , Great recommendation.

Anastasia is absolutely glorious.

Carol, I am glad that you scored an Anastasia

Thanks, Kristine :) :) :)

Sunny - so beautiful!! And I'm really happy that she's so healthy for you! Those blooms are amazing!

@rosecanadian please keep us posted on how yours performs this season! Mine grew to almost six feet the first year, though i know our zones are much different. I hope she stays incredibly clean for you too! And the bloom and fragrance are both so beautiful. I can't wait to hear your review.

And thanks @Kristine LeGault 8a pnw! It really has been an impressive young rose. I'm hoping it will remain so.

Sunny - that's incredible...yours grew to almost 6 feet in its first year!!! Wow!!! Talk about vigorous!

Sunny how is Anastasia doing? I noticed it won an ADR and that definitely interested me. How has its health held up against blackspot without spray.

Hey Di! Just took these pics today. She is very healthy for me no-spray. Im experiencing some die-back, i tried to pic. But lots of new canes this year so no complaints. She gets tall for me. Not a fast repeat, but i dont fert. Bloomed this summer when everyone else shut down. Strong, long stems. fragrance has been hit or miss for me this year. But we had a drought, so low humidity.

Sure is a beautiful bloom!! I wish you had said the fragrance was more consistent. :) :)

Well I put it in my basket :). it is beautiful
