| I got a new tea that needs an I.D. I checked the flowers, nodding; and the leaves, looked like my other Tea's leaves. Here's some pictures:
This is the whole plant. You may notice some red-orange blooms on one side that are from a different rose that came along with this one when I bought it. The blooms of this one appear to get lighter in color when it gets more sun. When I bought it, it had dark magenta blooms, when I moved it to a sunny spot on my rooftop its blooms got lighter.

     Here are the blooms up close and the buds. It has a cluster-flowering habit and its buds are pointed. The bloom in the first photo is one of the older blooms it had when I bought it. I've also counted the petals to be at least 21+ and they seem to look a bit ruffled. |

 Here's the leaves. It has 5-7 leaflets and have small prickles underneath. It has few prickles on the stems so far I've only seen 2 red hooked prickles on it. It's also own-root. |

| Pretty rose, but it doesn't look "Tea-like" at all to me. It's more of a modern floribunda in all traits to my eye. Which one, who can say? Perhaps if you post it to the Roses forum, you might get more suggestions? Good luck. Kim |

| Agreed with Mr. Rupert. It seems to me to be more a Buck rose with that bloom coloration. Josh |
