Hello,

I just moved into my new house and it came with a pair of tree roses that are now beautifully in bloom. People keep asking me what variety it is and I have no idea, and neither does the previous owner. Can someone help me please?

Thank you.

Try using this website and typing in the name "Playboy." It's a floribunda by Cocker, and it does resemble your photos. However, the long-focus photo looks very red without the blending. The close-ups do look like "Playboy." You may also wish to contact the American Rose Society in Virginia for a list of the rosarians in your area. They should be able to identify your rose. One rosarian recommended that I take a flower to an ARS rose competition, and that plenty of people there would be helpful.

Sorry, but that rose isn't Playboy. Playboy is yellow with orange petal edges, fading to cream with pink petal edges.
