Mislabeled rose? Can anyone help to identify this beautiful pink rose?
I just bought 2 of these beautiful roses from Lowes. The label shows this is Le Petit Prince Hybrid Tea rose, but the blooms do not match the picture. When I googled Le Petit Prince rose, the blooms look totally different (to me) and that it is supposed to be lavender color and this one I bought is definitely pink. Additionally, this one says it is a hybrid tea while when I googled around, LPP is a Floribunda. I am so confused now. Does anyone know what this rose actually is? Is it really LPP?
Here is a picture of LPP from Heirloom Rose website:

Can anyone help me ID this rose? Old rose on old homesite.
Comments (17)Your rose looks similar to a rose in the Sacramento Cemetery, our found rose, "Dr Peck's 12th Avenue Smoothie" is thornless, once blooming. Very fragrant. This found rose is thought to be the same as the Charles Lawson in commerce. Below is a link to a photo I took in the cemetery a few years ago. I liked this rose so much that I propagated it and planted it in my yard even though it is a once bloomer. It is quite vigorous and now takes up the back corner along the fence. Here is a link that might be useful: Dr Peck's 12th Ave Smoothie/Charles Lawson...See MoreCan anyone help me ID this BEAUTIFUL ROSE? - I've spent hours

Comments (6)Hi, thank you. It's located in Adelaide, South Australia. We moved to this house 6 months ago, this is the first time it's flowered since we've been here. It's been styled into a kind of round ball tree shape and is almost as tall as me...See MoreHelp with identifying this fragrant pink rose, please?
Comments (27)I looked at the HMF page for Sonia Rykiel. The bloom form looks like it favors more of a cupped, old-fashioned shape. It appears that it sometimes has an yellow tint to it too, which I've never seen with this one. Mine is always a light pink. Gorgeous rose though. One thing I noticed about the rose today that may help an ID -- the scent has changed with the hotter temperatures. Now it smells strongly of lemonade/citrus! Really incredible scent. I wish there was a way to convey it here....See More

@rosecanadian @MasLovesRoses_z8a GA I agree, they are gorgeous! I actually got another one so now I have 3! The thing is, I want to plant them in the front flowerbed as a rose hedge but since I don't exactly know what this rose is, I won't know its growth habit and how big it can get.
Also, I bought 3 Moonlight in Paris rose from Lowes as well last week and the bloom is almost exactly the same as this LPP! Weirdly, this one does not look like MIP either. Could both of them be mislabeled? Now I have 6 of basically the same roses, lol. Here is a picture of MIP (color is a bit washed out but they have the same pink color in real life.

2 years agolast modified: 2 years agoI just came back from Lowes, and they had what they actually labelled Scentuous (by Certified Rose) this time. However, now I am doubting this one is actually Scentuous. Lowes has been having a lot of mislabeling lately. I am so sure the Moonlight in Paris and Le Petit Prince I got last time was the real Scentuous and that this new "Scentuous" I just got is actually something else. Here are some of the pictures. The petals have white and dark pink color and the inside is apricot. the leaves are lighter green. Can anyone guess what this one actually is? My guess is this is Marc Chagall rose.
