This rose has such an interesting color. The photos below were taken at different times of the year. It seems the cooler the weather, the more intense the Apricot coloring.
A Great Rose.

Absolutely gorgeous. Oh Chris, the bugs are feasting on my roses. I’ve tried the soap spray, but it hasn’t deterred them. What is your next suggestion? Should I cut off all the eaten leaves? Feeling frustrated!

Bugs also bug me! I try my best not to spray chemical insecticides on my roses. But sometimes, if the infestation is devastating I will spray them with an all purpose insecticide. It is not my favorite option, but it does work. If beetles or mites, you could also try hosing them down with water. I would do this early in the morning of a sunny day. This will allow the leaves to dry out, so no fungal disease can set up. Hope this helps.

I’ve never grown this rose, but your beautiful photos remind me of the polyantha Perle d’Or. I’ve always said that Fall blooms, with the cooler days, makes the colors more intense. Great Post!
