KBW's Comments
Scentimental is an outstanding rose for hot climate. The flowers are of medium size but very showy, beautiful and quite fragrant. In Okara, I did not find it to be as strongly fragrant as few other roses but it does well. In hotter months, fragrance reduces. Strongly recommended for hot climates.
Added in Apr 2015
Scentimental performs very well in Islamabad climate. The bloom gets much bigger (over 4") if the bush is two years or older. Fragrance is also stronger as compared to the bushes grown in very hot climate like Okara or Bahawalpur.

In my experience of growing Century II in Okara, it does well in hot weather though flower size reduces drastically. Scent is quite strong in hot weather and flower size is large. A must have in the hot areas.

Rafiq's Comments
The images were taken on 14-Oct-13. This rose also planted in full sun without shade, it has also proved good for our climate. Blooms multiple times in year. Double shaded orange color flower. Back sides of petals are darker than the front. Good compact shaped blooms.

KBW's Comments
Please compare the colour of two roses, one in Changa Nursery and other in Rafiq sbs place. The second one is more orangish while the first one is more towards the yellow side. Speciment photos given in HMF are also more orange though there are a few yellow ones as well. Is it due to a different season or differents bushes have different shades? More input needed.
