pink/yellow huge bloom rose id please

18 years ago

We moved into our house last August. This rose bush was already there and well established. It was blooming then, and it is blooming now. The roses get to be bigger than my fist and start out looking mostly yellow. As you can see in the pic, by the time they are finished opening, the pink edges have almost taken over and all the yellow color is in the middle.

It's not a climber. Right now the bush is about 4.5' tall. Any other info I need to provide?

Oh, I live in Oklahoma City, OK if that helps.

Thanks!

P.S. This picture is of one I have cut and taken inside. The little white roses are not grown near these roses. And, the flash washed out the yellow on the some of the petals. Every petal has yellow at the middle and pink at the edges.

It is fragrant? Do you have a photo of it as it is just opening?

I would venture to guess Peace, but the additional info would help.

It's very fragrant... smells lovely.

I do not have any pics when they are just opening. I will take some as soon as I can.

Thanks!

Here is a link that might be useful: they look just like this one from your link.

It certainly looks like Peace, check out Helpmefind (roses) and compare their many photos. Should have fat, tubby buds, with foliage that has "substance". J.

Wow... I just had to post and say that Gardenweb is really an amazing community! I posted this orignal post last year, and of course I didn't write down the answer, so I had forgotten by now what my rose was! I didn't figure the post would still be around, but I did a seach anyway, and LOOKIE HERE! I'm so excited to refind this post.

Thanks so much to everyone who answered me last year!!!
