A wonderful capture but how strange as there are hints of red in the white one I wonder if there was a red one in the crosses used to produce the hybrid. You could try sending the photo to a garden magazine and see if their experts have an answer Christa

It's indeed a good idea to send it to a garden magazine and ask about the phenomenon, thanks Peter for sharing this idea. Anyway, whatever it is, it's impressive to see.

Beautiful composition. And it's really amazing!

Yes,isn't it? As if it was created to breed qualities and traits values from two separate parent plants into one plant....

Beautiful floral close-up.

Thanks Jaap. This summer in my garden, a real eye-catcher!!

C'est vraiment étonnant ! et joli !

Merci M-F, en effet, cela à de quoi surprendre. C'était une petite rose de couleur crème achetée dans un pot qui présentait soudainement ces deux petites fleurs rouges...

A hybrid, I guess !!!! Exquisite **********************************

Thanks Marie-Claire. Yes indeed, it must be a hybrid, and is impressive anyway.

All I can think to say is ... extraordinarily beautiful.

Thanks Eric, I thought it was extraordinarily intriguing.

Yes, Andrea, it was really amazing to see this two-toned, double-rose.
