I'm thinking Sonia too. Or Impatient.

Smell? Thorns?

I love mislabeled roses.. just got another "Medallion" that looks strikingly familiar to my Sterling Silvers. LOL!

Where did you get the rose? If at Home Depot (where I get lots & lots of roses!), I've found that this year has been the WORST as far as mistagged roses. They're coming from Armstrong Roses and the Armstrong label is about 3" down inside the dirt. The HD distributor is just putting whatever tag they have onto the roses and I've gotten quite a few of Sterling Silvers that were not labeled as such, but Medallion, Mr. Lincoln, Heirloom, etc. If you got this rose from HD, take it out of the bucket & shake some of the planting dirt off of it. Below the dirt level right above the rootball should be another tag. THAT one should be the right tag. Smiling
Roses are one of my passions! Just opened, my Etsy shop (to fund my rose hobby)! http://www.etsy.com/shop/Tweet...
