The rose was in full bloom when I bought it, which is why I bought it because I've had mismarked roses before. I don't get mildew here as I don't have any humidity to speak of. No mildew, no blackspot, no rust, no slugs, no JB, etc etc etc. Just extreme winters that kill everything. And yes, I'm very sure that it's the plant I bought last year because I don't have Peace. I don't particularly care for Peace and is not one rose I have in my garden. I can take pics of the plastic Weeks tag along with the metal tag tomorrow.
