Hi All,

I'm reaching out to the community to see if either of these roses look familiar. Any/All ideas would be appreciated. They are not roses that were bought in the last 4 years, so they may not be currently in a rose catalog (believe me, I've poured through a lot of them and my rose encyclopedias).

3 pictures of each mystery rose, including the bush shot

Thx, Linda

I've never seen Color Me Pink, but I agree with Beth that the second one is Lovestruck.

I had COLOR ME PINK several yrs ago and lost it (not in the fire) and that is definitely it! I wish I could replace it. Thankfully LOVESTRUCK survived!

Thanks to both of you for your identifications. I can see "Lovestruck", but the "Color Me Pink" looks different from mine. Still, lots of pictures of roses I've seen don't always match what is happening with the same rose in my own garden. I suppose it depends on local conditions. So, I respect Beth NorCal's experience.

I will go with both suggestions. Thank you again for your help. Thank You!
