| Gee, the orange rose thread was lotsa fun! I can't resist starting another one - any suggestions for true orange and yellow bicolor rose for my orange and yellow garden? I suspect that I will be planting more than one or two roses there...
thanks abunch, Avalon |

| My choice would be an old tea rose, Rosette Delizy, which I think is incredibly beautiful, and which in my estimation no modern rose can touch in terms of beauty and lushness of coloring among the bicolored roses. |

| Playboy and Westerland. If a very soft orange qualifies, I still love Folklore but for me if was a skyscraper rose just like Abe Lincoln. I have never grown it, but Pat Austin had vivid wonderful color even in the hot Texas sun. Gorgeous shrub. LOVE these colors@ |

This was here when we bought our house. I've often wondered who it is. Regardless its a good bloomer and very healthy.
A favorite of mine, Joseph's Coat

| The mini Hot Tamale is nice. The old tea Clementina Carboneiri is another good one but tender. |

| Thank you all so much for the wonderful photos and great suggestions. Based on appearance alone, I would have way too much trouble deciding which ones to get. I'll have to research them all to determine which ones can stand the climate here, so I suppose that will ultimately be the criterion that will gratefully take the decision out of my hands! thanks again, Avalon |

| Kate, I think your middle rose is a Chihuly. I thought I posted with some pics here a couple days ago, but I don't see my post??? I'll try again. I think Chihuky is just lovely, even though I don't relly like ornage roses, neither do i care for bi-colors. But this one is a beauty, and all the guys here love it, so it stays. Pretty clean and vigorous in its first year, too. |
