Thanks Glenda. This bush has been through several moves with me and I guess it knows its home. It goes from orange yellow to bright rose. It's my friend this time of year.

It's really interesting to hear the names of plants from different parts of the world. Don't recall seeing a Joseph's Coat here in UK. What a stunning looking flower.

This is an old climbing rose here in US. It's survived moves, black spot, bugs, you name it. It's come back victoriously.

Hope you can find it, Eileen. I bring mine in and float them in a rose bowl so that I can look at them all day. Good luck!

Thanks Stephanalta. I've never really seen a lavender rose either and I've shopped for them. You might try Jackson & Perkins Rose Gardens.
