Good morning, GeeBee and FRiends.

GeeBee and I, along with her knowledgeable rose forum friends, have determined that the mystery rose that I have been trying to identify is probably a "Tropicana". Thanks so much for your help with this, GeeBee.

I am posting a photo of it here, in case one of you recognizes it and has a differing opinion. But, unless someone else tells me differently, I believe we have discovered it's name. :-)


Tropicana

I am a bit embarrassed to post this since my husband reminded me that, even though it is a "very nice photo", I forgot one of the cardinal rules of photography; to mist it with water before taking the picture - me of all people, being married to a photographer! Now I will have to wait until next spring to get a misted shot of this rose, as this one has finished blooming for the season. :-(

Hope you all have a wonderfully warm, fuzzy and rosy Wednesday.

Wishing you a rosy day,too!
This is a mystery rose because the picture was unlabeled..I think it is Tropicana, also?
