| I bought what was labeled a Windermere David Austin rose. It had lots of buds but no open flowers at the time. I've seen Windermere before, I know what it looks like. When the buds started to open... definitely not Windermere. They're a salmon/coral red-pink with a yellow center. I imagine that it's a young enough plant that in future years the flowers might get fuller than they are now, but I'm hoping even from color to try to narrow down what I actually got. There are more buds cracking with the same color as the open flower. Any help would be appreciated. :)
Here's what it looked like last night:
Here's what it looks like this morning:

| I have a feeling this might not be an Austin introduction. Could you contact the source of the mislabeled rose? |

| I agree, probably not an Austin. Take a look at Cinnamon Twist and Cinco De Mayo, both of which were widely available at nurseries in the past year or two and have that general cinnamony shade and ruffles. Kathy |
