Marlon's Day is every bit as sturdy as Moonstone....which is one of my favorite roses. I actually prefer the deeper pink edge on Marlon's Day. The flowers are nearly identical in form, size, and thickness of petal......lasts a long time in the vase.

I've not seen this bloom in person, but all the pictures I see show the blooms to have a rather ragged looking edge to the petals. The darker blooms of this cultivar seem better, but the lighter ones all look rather "damaged" to me. Are the blooms resistant to rain and heat like Moonstone??

Almost Heaven Roses had a gorgeous picture of Marlon's Day on their website, Almost Heaven Roses.com
