| Champagne Wishes just bloomed for me. I am new to the world of roses but I just love them. This is the first white/apricot rose I've owned. It's so much prettier than I even imagined. I'm so glad I purchased this one. I thought pinks were my favorite until I saw reds. And then reds were my favorite until I saw yellow. And now my new favorite is white/apricot. I guess it's okay to love them all. :o) Thanks for looking. Michaela |

| Thank you Carol! It's called Champagne Wishes - it's one of the Easy Elegance roses. :o) |

| Micheala that is a beautiful rose! I totally understand what you mean about your "favorite" rose color lol. I have a hard time picking my favorite because I love them all! I seem drawn to pink and yellows but I also like the apricots and oranges and lavenders and red and white, ect ect. It's the same with planting impatiens, I always say every year I am going to plant one color for a big impact and then I can't choose which color is my favorite because I like them all and I end up with all the colors lol. |

| This is my 3rd year with 'C. Wishes'. Had a very cold, bona fide z4 winter last year & it came thru with flying colors. The canes died back to ground level but quickly regrew & put on a good display of blooms. Many good roses in the Easy Elegance series for both disease resistance & winter hardiness. |

| boncrow - thank you! Haha! I'm glad I'm not the only one who struggles with this! It is so hard to pick a favorite... they are all so beautiful in their own way. I did the same thing with petunias this year. I wanted to plant one color and I ended up with two shades of purple, white, and black. wirosarian - thanks for your feedback on Champagne Wishes! I'm glad to hear it survived that brutal winter! I am hoping it survives this winter since it was a bit late planting it. I had to wait for the fence to get installed because I didn't want it getting trampled by the fence installers. I have been very impressed with all of my easy elegance roses so far. I love them all. |

| Ooh I bet your petunias were pretty. Right now I seem stuck on pink roses, just about every rose I want for next year is pink! I'm sure I will add some other colors but there are so many pretty pinks lol. My husbands favorite hands down is a yellow so I will probably add some yellow for him. I have to be sweet sometime so he will help me dig holes lol. |

| sorry boncrow didn't see your response! I did like them! I planted way too many and I had deadhead city. Might take it easy on the petunias next year :P Nothing wrong with lots of pink! Hehe that is nice of him! My husbands favorite changes every time I plant a new rose so he is no help... When I planted Kashmir he said his favorite was red roses. Then I planted Champagne Wishes and he said THAT was his favorite. lol! |

| Stunningly beautiful bloom. Ahhh...really love it!! Hehe yes picking a favorite color is tuff. :o) |
