Where is the rose - Buff Beauty


My son gave me this most gorgeous yellow musk rose a few years ago, for my birthday. It grew in my french-style rose garden in Boise for years. I tried last year, after we moved to this state, to buy a couple of them..... but... alas.... the ones that were sold to me by the High Country Rose Nursery, are not Buff Beauty! Buff Beauty has rich green leaves, and grows in a mound form... the roses are big and beautiful and hang from the healthy green, thornless canes. These horrible roses have thick red canes that bear long hideous thorns. I will yank these horrible roses out of the soil and keep looking for replacements for the beauty I had to leave in Boise. (Sigh)
