I agree Porkpal.
I've had an amazing variety of colors and habits come out of a single cross or even from selfs. And that old rose magenta pink seems to be hidden in the genes of a lot of roses.

Also, roses do grow shorter and denser here and since that's a Plant Select picture, I bet it was taken in Colorado. I grow some climbers as shrubs. That looks like a lot of new growth from the base. I wonder how cane hardy it is here?

It kinda reminds me a teeny bit of my Rose de Rescht, which I think I might like better because it really is cane hardy here. I hope I see a Ruby Voodoo this year at the garden centers.

Knowing John, it grows well on its own roots.
