It does look like Flaming Peace. But, a day old bloom would make for sure- FP fades very, very quickly!

Thank you for your comment!
It seems to be a sport from Cordes' Perfect.
Check out the attached photo on HMF.

My Brothers Grimm Fairy Tale has thrown several long canes this summer. This is the second growing season for this bush. The first season it did throw a few long canes, but only about 3 feet in length. This year the bush has about 5 canes as long as 6+ feet . Those canes only flowered on the tips.
I take it that this is NOT the normal growth habit for this variety? It is sprawling out and taking up so much space that I'm going to have to move it since it is now encroaching on a Pumpkin Patch Rose, which is planted near it.
Thanks for your help.

The canes You describe as 6footers, did they grow this season, or was part of it of last year?
In other words: Did You prune last years' canes?
If not, You might have found a sport!
When You have the patience to wait till next year, those canes will most likely produce laterals, that will flower.

Hi Jay-Jay,
Those longer arching canes grew this year after I had pruned the bush in the spring (late March/early April).
I'm going to have to move Brother's Grimm next spring because it is covering a Pumpkin Patch on one side and a perennial Hibiscus on the other.
I'll try to upload a photo over the weekend.
Thanks for your help!
Chris

You're welcome! I'll look forward to Your photo's.
PS: A Pumpkin Patch is a patch of soil on which pumpkins grow? Or is it a plant?

Apologies! I meant a "Pumpkin Patch" Rose. <grin> I should have been clearer. I didn't even give it a thought about the double meaning.

No apology needed, but I can't find that Rose on HMF.
I now understand/looked that up, that a Pumpkin Patch is a kind of a display of (different kinds of) pumpkins.

Hi Jay-Jay,
I like the color(s) on Pumpkin Patch, too. The various seasons play a hand in the exact coloring I get.
I uploaded three photos. I didn't realize the photos were listed under my screen name and not the Brothers Grimm entry. Sorry. You can view the pictures by clicking on my screen name above this post.
