PPal - Yea, Pure Perfume always produces these weird shaped blooms. They're the flat blooms, but they always are the double or quad blooms. And almost ALWAYS lopsided. But she smells SOO good (very citrus-y), so that's why I love her. Her blooms are always too heavy & the canes are always too thin to hold them, so she droops a lot. Plus she NEVER stays white.. gets filthy SO easily compared to some of my other white roses. And she does show a pink tinge rather than the yellow tinge many white roses show. Honestly, why don't you try a Koko Loko? That's gotta be one of the oddest roses I have.. starts out beautifully tan (yes, tan, like a cafe latte'), then ages truly to a magnificent lavender. Smells good, good vase life, very hardy for me. My bareroot from Edmunds isn't as strong as the 3gal grown one I got locally, but they're both in good shape. And very easily found here.
Roses are one of my passions! Just opened, my Etsy shop (to fund my rose hobby)! http://www.etsy.com/shop/Tweet...
