That's true. My Jude the Obscure sends up 6-foot canes regularly. I prune them down to 4 feet because the rose bush is in the middle of a rose bed and I don't want it to obscure other roses (see what I did there?)
Annette, you can find all of the Austin roses in our database by entering David Austin on the hybridizer line of the "Search by characteristics" form in the Roses Database.
The Romanticas are a little harder to find, but they're all accessible if you type Romantica on the "Other" line in the "Class" section of the "Search by characteristics" form.
