Hey dave thats a georgeous
Old Bush you got there. Do
the blooms bear a close examination?

Do you mean Old Blush? I assume that you do...

The blooms themselves are very nice for a day or two and then they
start getting all "blowsy". Right now, almost all ofthem are either
heavily open or dropping off...

I'm gonna attempt to grow it this year
here in Z5!!? So, since you live in Zone 6
was there any kill this year. I know you had
a hard winter too.

Wasn't much of a winter kill at all. However, are you sure that you
want to attempt this? After all, I'm stretching it by trying to grow
it in 6B as it's a Zone 7 rose. I have to wonder how it would do in
KC.

The yellow looks an awful lot like golden wings.

Golden Wings is too "rufflely".

But hard to be sure. Where did you get it?

I can't remember. I know that it's a J&P tagged rose though. I sure
wish I could remember what it is. Shame I'm too lazy to keep a
journal.
