      ID this rose?

      This lovely rose was here when I moved in. So if the previous owners planted it, it could have gone in anytime in the last 40 years, but it doesn't look that old, so maybe 20 years?

      It's about 5 feet tall, shiny dark green leaves, upright growth, very disease resistant. It's a re-bloomer, and probably either a small grandiflora or large floribunda, as this vase has only two branches. No fragrance. It is more apricot in cooler weather and more tan in hot weather.

      I'd love to plant more of it and get ride of the powdery mildew and rust plagued others. Thanks for any ideas.

      Looks kind of like Easy Does It, a floribunda. Could also be Livin' Easy, which came before Easy Does It, in 1996.

      Hey Rome, I think you may have something there. I looked at both of those, but it didn't seem quite right, but another in the series is Easy Going, and I think that might be it. What do you think?

      It's 1998 which is in the right time frame. We moved in about 2008. It is growing in part shade, which may be why it's a bit taller than normal.



      Hmmm, now that I look at other pics of Easy Going, it seem this pic isn't typical. It's usually more yellow. I think your idea of Livin' Easy is probably more like it;
