Hybrid Tea.  

Mauve or purple blend.  Pink and cream bicolor.  Blooms in flushes throughout the season.

In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third. In colder areas, you'll probably find you'll have to prune a little more than that.  Requires spring freeze protection (see glossary - Spring freeze protection) .
