They were so beautiful. One Bush was like a little Rose Garden. I moved from there and I have been looking for this variety and cant seem to find it. I found the exact picture of the Rose Plant. I had been looking for the name & at last found it.

I...Thanks for passing along that info, Matblogger. I really should have my soil tested for pH. Based on the color of my hydrangeas (pink), it must be at least slightly alkaline, so that might be why the rose color is lighter. Many of my daylilies seem to bloom darker than in other gardens, and I thought that was because our nights get so cool. There are certainly a lot of variables to influence color!VWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17539135776275337661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644837848136749892.post-60135218161605437452011-11-04T11:55:56.059-07:002011-11-04T11:55:56.059-07:00I've heard that roses tend to a lighter tone i...I've heard that roses tend to a lighter tone in basic soil. Maybe this is why your rose has a lighter tone. <br />I also have a Tess of the D'Urbervilles that is much lighter than in the catalog.Matbloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03257833574285413541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2644837848136749892.post-4427528238271291632011-03-30T21:43:41.714-07:002011-03-30T21:43:41.714-07:00I've planted it this winter.
