Honie — It’s funny you ask: there is identification under or in front of practically every rose but none under this one. It was my first visit to Regent’s Park on this trip and almost as soon as I got there everyone left the park because it began to rain heavily. The bed was situated close to, or in, the David Austin collection and the plant’s slightly more mature blooms look much like Lady of Shalot®, both in color and shape. Strangely the posted list of the English Rose Border (donated by David Austin Roses) does not include it; perhaps it was a recent addition. I’ll try to find out the next time I’m there. The full blooms of Joseph’s Coat seem to have a lot of pink whereas these looked more orange.
Very beautiful Rona!! You surely seem to embrace a calling for Macro shots and your flowers are crisp in detail and rich in color….thanks for sharing….
Rona, do you happen to know if the name of this rose is Joseph’s Coat? I love the color!

David Austin Roses are my favorite. I made our daughter’s bridal bouquet using Rosalind. The fragrance is delicious and the blooms are so full.
