:: rosa chinensis 'mutabilis' ::

This beautiful rose has a lovely progression of colours from bud to blowsy, fully-mature bloom. It begins with a deep crimson glimpse of petal as the bud begins to open, which turns an apricot-orange, then as the flower opens it changes through coppery-pink then lastly to a deep pink.
It is a wonderful rose along a fenceline as it will make a stunning hedge with an almost constant supply of flowers from Spring through to the first frost.
