Hi All: I chucked the problem rose in the dumpster after the Rose Society meeting. Next time I buy a grafted rose, I will be sure to inspect the graft more closely. Most of my roses are own root, but I do buy a couple of grafted ones every year if they are a good deal
The petunia is Supertunia Vista Bubblegum. It snowed the other day, so I took that picture. There are 6 plants per barrel. The snow melted and they still look ok. We have had a couple of hard frosts, but some plants are still going. This is the longest that I have had flowers still going in the garden this late into October. Those petunias look better than some of the rudbeckias. Here's a photo of the Bubblegum Vista Supertunia earlier in the season
