Name That Rose!

Multicolor rose

16 years ago

I bought this rose a number of years ago from the local Agway and am looking to get a few more. As it was before I got into roses I did not keep the name with the bush, can you help?

Single 5" flowers... Yellow centers, pink edges, gets more pink as it opens, slight scent, long sturdy stems, multiple blooms per season, 50 petals +/-.

Medium green shiny leaves, tip leave is 3", other 2-6 are about 1 1/2", dull underside.

Thorns are about 1/2".

Bush is a good 4-5' tall, late in the season.

Thanks

barbie -- on these forums you can start your own thread with a subject line specific to your question.

That being said, I'm pretty sure what you have is Mutabilis, which is also called a butterfly bush. Now that you know the name, it should be easy to find.

I really love that variety and I will put a link below to information about it, which includes a tab listing sources:
