Labeled as Caldwell pink, clearly it is not. Any ideas?

It looks like Rio Samba to me, but let's see what someone else thinks.

OMG! There is NOTHING pink about that rose, lol!

There are a lot of different roses that have that color blend. Can you tell us more about it? Where did you get it? Locally or mail order? Was it potted, bare root or bagged? Any more pictures of buds, leaves, etc.? It helps to know as much as possible about a rose when trying to ID it.

Too many petals for 'Rio Samba', at least for my 'Rio Samba'.

'Love & Peace'?

'Chris Evert'?

Here is a link that might be useful: Love & Peace @ helpmefind

Oldie's guess of Rio Samba is a good possibility, with the same bloom color and leaf shape, but there are so many roses in commerce.

As seil said, more information would be helpful.

I'll put a link below to the first of several pages of photos on HelpMeFind:

Here is a pic of the bud, I have more pics, but I need to find them. Was a body bag rose from menards. New growth is purplish.

Definitely could be Rio samba, the buds start red, open yellow with red tips, fade to red, then cream/ white, just like several people described. Here is another pic. This was taken in the heat of the summer

RE: mislabeled rose, any ideaa?

A search showed mention of someone's blog where she reports buying a Rio Samba from Menard's in May of 2011, so they did carry it.

The foliage is a dead ringer for the foliage on my Rio Samba.
