| I just started gardening at my church and have four roses to care for. Three were labeled but this one simply had a wire with no tag. The roses have been here for years I think and are irrigated in our Las Cruces, NM heat. This rose is about 30" high, the leaves are a medium green with a matte finish. It doesn't have many thorns and I'm supposing it's a floribunda. The flowers have no scent and are about 2.5 to 3 inches across. The petals are a pretty coral color with yellow at the base. The flowers soon fade to a rather nondescript pale color but they hold on for an amazingly long time. I don't know much about roses but I tried to answer any potential questions. Thank you for any ideas, I'd love to know what someone planted along side the Honor and two Blue Ribbon roses. |

| This unknown rose isn't pink (to me anyway). I called it coral but maybe apricot is a better description. Also, it has quite a bit of yellow on the outside of the petals when it's just a bud and barely open. I have a picture of that but didn't see how to put 2 pictures on. |

| Could be a fully blown Bill Warriner. |

| It looks a lot like Brass Band. |

| You're right, some of the photos of Brass Band are a very close match! I'll have to try and find out when the roses were planted to make sure it wasn't before that rose was developed. Thanks! |
