This one has a tag that was faded when I got it. Color is ever so slightly more peach cream.
This one is called Halloween.

Comments (9)Thanks so much! Judy, it's in its fifth season. Mine didn't do much the first year I had it, the second year it bloomed quite a bit more, and by the third season it was doing great. Mine had gotten pretty big so I had my grandson prune it for me. Mine blooms good in the spring, then I have scattered blooms. I think yours will do great once it gets established....See MoreA few more blooms...
Comments (7)Thanks everyone! Well.. according to my records, I got OJ from Armstrong Nurseries in 2001. Must've been that one yr they offered mail order. I originally got an own-root one from Muriel Humenick in the 90s, back when I was active in the Butte Rose Society. We used to take treks down to Sac a lot to go to seminars and then go visit Michael Fischer at Michael's Premier Roses. I miss those days. We'd hang out with Muriel and Baldo Vellegas and all the other great people from the Sac Rose Societies. Anyway... Muriel had a lot of unusual roses she'd sell. I got one from her and obviously must've lost it. That's apparently why I then got one from Armstrong. OJ is not a rose in commerce anymore. It was barely in commerce back then. Very difficult to find. I guess that's another one I need to propagate or get some cuttings to one of the suppliers. It's a beautiful pure orange floribunda that grows about 3ftx2ft and has decent repeat. If anyone is near an Armstrong Nursery, you might go check and see if they still offer it. I kinda doubt it tho. But you never can tell. They had a lot of semi-exclusive varieties, many of which were Christensen ones. Unfortunately, those nurseries are not up this far north....See MoreA few more blooms
