This is the first bud opening on the last rosebush to bloom, so it's the final color that I'm figuring out. Not fully open yet, but it's a dark pink with white stripe so far.
Makes me think of a piece of candy. :>
And the last of the first bloomers is pretty much open. Not as stripey as it looked like to start, but a nice bright pink.
This opened up today and I was surprised to find a distinctly quartered center. This bush has flowered before and not done that. I think this stem grew off of a sucker that I left alone because it had developed buds. I only lop off the suckers that show no sign of buds. But it's an interesting new twist to the back yard! A second one has just started to open on another cluster, so we'll see how they compare.
