Is this really OOR ? The first flush is a watermelon color.

    No. I have OOR and mine is a true red.

    Is a tiny bit darker . It started out almost a very pale pale watermelon color and it's getting a little darker but certainly not red.

    I have no idea what this Rose is but it has the most incredible healthy foliage of any Rose I have ever had and there must be 80 to 90 buds on it right now so whatever it is it does get to stay because it's awfully healthy and it's a pretty rose sure isn't dark red though.

    I appreciate your response thank you

    Mine fades some in high heat, but not as much as the picture shows. Looks a bit like my Jolie Veranda. Mine OOR is not blackspot resistant, but not the worst offender

    I sent a picture to Palatine. Maybe they can tell

    Sorry I don't know what it is, but it is very pretty.

    Reminds me of Parade. If they keep their bareroots sorted alphabetically, that would likely be next in line to Out of Rosenheim. Lovely rose! Sue

    Vasue, the color doesn't look that pink it's more of a salmon color although I see that they are getting a little bit darker colored this morning maybe it'll surprise me and turn red you never know

    Even Palatine isn't sure what it is. The buds ae small, maybe 2 ". The buds are dark so maybe it will get redder as it matures.

    From right to left: Kardinal kolorscape, OOR (so says Palantine), and a freshly sliced piece of watermelon purchased about 6 days ago (I ate it right after this pic was taken). The 2 blooms are several days old, too.

    A new OOR (if that's what mine is) bloom now is more red orange. I think new blooms were more true red a few weeks ago. I could be mistaken; it's a new one for me.

    The form of the OP's bloom looks different than mine.

    I was interested in OOR but if it's not consistently red I'll take it off my wishlist

    Your watermelon looks delicious but that Rose isn't even the same color it's more of a salmon color and it's got a small Bloom which the gal at Palatine said that was the right size for the bloom but according to their write-up they've got big blooms. The bush is amazing with wonderful grow the flowers around it are Vinca

    Farmerduck, above, observed the OP's photo reminded him of Jolie Veranda.

    After seeing this picture http://www.helpmefind.com/rose/l.php?l=21.303101 of Jolie Veranda at HMF, I agree. Though HMF says it's wider than taller.

    Color

    My Jolie has this strange coloration, sort of red/orange/pink and watermelon is really the best description. Great bloomer so far and I like it a lot

    Farmer, do you have a picture?

  • 9 years ago

    Pruned the plant last week as the first flush was done. Will try remember to take a photo when it blooms again

    The girl at Palatine is scratching her head

    She is on the case but so far she doesn't think it Is oor. She found the very last OoR and said an aged bloom was watermelon color like mine but the leaves were different. So the mystery continues

    Now foliage. The only difference I can tell is OOR is darker, bigger, and has a sharper tip

    the two on the left are JV

    See what I meant by the tip of OOR being sharper.

    caveat on the leaf size: OOR is three year old, and JV is a new plant.

    Don't think this photo helps, but here is JV, with all flowers gone

    Thanks farmer. When it cools off I will Takeep a picture of my leaves. Your OOR is a beautiful red

  • 9 years ago

    Here is a picture of the leaves

    rifis, I lIke what palatine sent you better than what I got lol

  • 9 years ago

    The leaves, the coloration, and the placement of spike all seem identical to my OOR. I think chance you are getting the real deal. Let's see what it looks like in the fall.

    Thank you Farmer. I will see what it does. It sure is healthy

  • 9 years ago

    so even though the blooms are not dark red like farmer's they are getting darker than they were so my hope is that as this Rose ages a bit they will be a true or red. Right now they're not watermelon color anymore actually more of a deep Coral

  • 9 years ago

    Mine is from Palatine. So far it is vigorous and healthy.

    There is the color I am longing to see. The new buds are a very dark red so there is hope. But what a healthy bush. Holy moly,

    Erasmus, what a stunner, thanks for sharing

    Kristine:


    6 years later, do you still have this rose?


    If so, do you have a definite ID?

    I dont still have it and I kind of regret giving it away. It did eventuslly become a gorgeous blue red with ultra shiny leaves.

  • 2 years ago

    If that’s a gorgeous true red, then it sounds like OOR.

    I asked because mine languished since planting. Last year, it even had PM when an overhanging crape myrtle provided ample spores. I need to have a word with Carl Whitcomb.

    But this year it really took off. A good number of canes pushing 6 feet in height, and lots of buds (I think) - it’s become a jungle back there. It’s always been a late bloomer here.
