  • Colour changing roses.

    My rose changes colour and I don't know why. It starts of as a yellow/red bud then turns yellow/pink then turns red. I have tried looking for the variety but no joy. Any advice would be grateful. Thanks

    I'd call that shocking pink, not red ... pretty though

    I guess that it could be one of a number of varieties, does this link help you to start searching? Masquerade starts off yellow & turns pink/red

        I had a Baby Masquerade miniature rose when I was a girl - in fact I think it was that rose that started me gardening!

          I have a customer with a very similar Rose - I'll ask her tomorrow.

            It really is lovely watching it change colour.

                    I know, you would have difficulty planting it in a colour scheme....
