That looks like the ones I saw at Washington Park before they hit commerce! I grew out the other one. Easy do-er, but I wasn't into it at all.

I do believe their are two, and my mind has not been lying to me.

Well, I ordered the Lemon Fizz Kolorscape from Palatine this past year, and then gave it to a friend who killed it. But when it came, it was the largest bareroot of a large order from them, and I can say I was very impressed with the plant. Had canes that were easily 3/4 inch and very long sturdy roots, and looked nothing at all like what I would expect a "landscape" rose to look like (low growing and twiggy). More like what I would expect to see with a vigorous climber in bareroot size, although I never saw it grown out. I will order it again next year.

It looks like the one I had here from Chamblees as well.

I have a feeling once budded it would behave quite differently. Perhaps that's why the Palatine product looks so different?

Maybe, but also keep in mind that Kordes LOVES to reuse names if it comes up with something it considers an improvement on the original plant of same name. Ya gotta keep yer eyes wide open with Kordes roses.
