Damask Rose "Hebe's Lip."

I have mad love for this rose, but I can't seem to take a picture of it that doesn't look like roadkill. It is far more beautiful in person!

imo this photo looks gorgeous! How hardy is this rose?

Aw, thanks! :D Hebe's Lip is very hardy (probably to Zone 4), but since it's an Old Rose it only blooms for 4-6 weeks in the summer. Not that I mind too much, lol...the repeat bloomers always get weird diseases!
