On another note:
Last year when my husbands family was selling their parents house. I took the two rose bushes from the back yard - cut them back and brought them home to plant in my yard. The one rose bush didn't make it and I found out from my husbands sister that it was a cutting and had never done well. The second bush was a deep red miniature rose. Beautiful. It bloomed again before fall, made it through the hurricane and bloomed a little bit after that.

Fast forward to now. I cut them back right after Valentines and started counting my buds on Saturday - between my 2 rose bushes that I had already and then Nannie's rose bush, I had 17 buds. Monday, Nannie's roses start to bloom and its PINK! I have never seen such a thing! I didn't know they could change colors and I looked and it was not a sucker that was growing on there because I didn't cut anything that was low off.

Here is the rose now:
