    Yes, you're correct, they are a super hot pink rose standard. My mother always added a bit of Epsom salts to the base of her roses to get the leaves nice and dark...

    According to the National Gardening Association:

    Many rosarians agree that Epsom
    salts-treated planats produce more new canes at the bottom of the plant
    (bottom breaks) and darker green foliage. Recommendations on how much to
    use vary, but generally you can apply 1/2 cup of granules in spring
    before buds first begin to open and 1/2 cup in fall before leaves drop.
    Apply a foliar spray (1 tablespoon per gallon of water per foot of shrub
    height) after the leaves open in spring and again at flowering.
