I believe that anyone who bought this from Heirloom Roses did not receive the correct variety. The picture posted by Deborah's Rose Garden is the "Spiced Coffee" we all obtained and it is no where close to the description. The color is more cream blending into a pink edge and definitely not a lavender shading into coffee.

Whatever it is, I think it is a good rose for my area (Iowa) - always in bloom, nicely shaped blooms, clustered, sets hips. The issue is it just is not what they sold it to be and they should stop selling it as Spiced Coffee. It would be nice to figure out what variety it is but my internet "research" has not come up with anything specific.

How very sad. In all the years I ordered roses from the Clements I never received a mislabeled plant.

I have received several that were not like the original rose that I had years ago. This is just one of them. The other was Fire and Ice. They have the wrong Mother Plants.

Member DesertChildAZ stated that 'Spiced Coffee' sold by Heirloom Roses is not the original rose. We have quite a number of different pictures for this listing, including some which refer to its provenance. DesertChildAZ can you specifically explain the differences for our members? I am also sure we can get an input from Anja Taschner.
