It has been a tough winter on the roses, with a lot of winter kill. I lost all my grafted hybrid teas. This one is a floribunda that I bought this year ( need to check the name, but it's pouring rain right now. "Festival"

Looks like the new Easy Does It, it has that distinctive scalloped petels. Beautiful!

Found the tag..."Festival". I accidentally knocked 1 of 2 buds off of this pink one. The remaining bud became super enormous bloom.

I was wondering how your roses faired, considering if mine did as poor as they did with the winter, I was curious if anyone survived for you.

That is one heck of a bloom!

Hmmm, I couldn't find anything named Festival that matched that first image (that looks like Easy Does It) A nursery renaming it?

Could have been mis-tagged. There is no little metal tag on it. You are probably right. I bought a bunch of 2 gallon roses from Walmart at the end of May. They were in terrible condition, so I'm glad they bounced back.

Ahhh, Wal-Mart, wouldn't be surprised if they renamed it. It is a beauty though.

So sorry about the loss of your grafted hybrid teas, Joanna. The bloom on that pink rose is just amazing!

Sorry that you lost so many roses. It is so depressing to dig "dead sticks" out of the ground. At least you have some blooms. Do you know the name of the pink one? It is wonderful, and must be hardy also!

It was a great excuse to buy more roses. Here's a few more.

Is that yellow one Rio Samba? I thought that RS was more orange than yellow, but HMF shows it as a yellow blend
