Mutabilis--First Flush
This really is the rose for those who think
they don't like singles. And for those who do like singles and love clear "sherbety" colors like raspberry and orange and peach. And for those who like full, naturally rounded bush shapes. And for those who like roses that are always in bloom. And for those who live in the swamps and don't believe there are no fungus-resistant roses. (It spots but only a little, and is so vigorous one hardly notices.) This is the rose with blooms that begin peach and move to yellow and then pink. Each bloom. Five petals on each. It has scent too, mild but there. |

How hardy is this rose? I see it listed as Zone 7. I know there is one at the National Arboretum in DC but they are slightly warmer than I am. Has anyone grown this rose successfully in Zone 6a or further north? In theory Mutabalis is a China rose, which makes it possibly hardier than tea-based varieties. It would be worth a try in Zone 6. |

Not really. I've tried it several times with winter protection here in Philippi, WV USDA 6. It never survived a winter. J. Del Col |
