I bought a bouquet of white roses. The center has a touch of peach and outer petals have a tint of green. They are stunning. Lightly scented. I went to a nursery but they had never seen a rose like it. Maybe it is a dutch import but I would love to find this rose to plant in my garden. The only thing the lady told me at the nursery is that it must be a hybrid tea. I have been on the internet searching and at the library but no luck.
Any ideas?.

It might be one (Old Dutch or Cartoon) of the roses of Jan Spek (Spek rozen). See their online catalogue, in wich You can turn the pages: http://www.rozen.com/flipbook.php?albumid=26
But this is a greenhouse rose.
When You like the combination of colours, just look at the rose pages of Honoré de Balzac, Pierre de Ronsard or Pierre Bonnard. But You need a warm dry climate, because in rain these flowers can ball!
Honoré de Balzac also has a fragrance with peach in it! Very nice!

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question. I will look at the sites you suggested.
I also took a photo of the rose that I'm speaking of before they have totally wilted, so the colors are not as beautiful as they were in the beginning. I will attach it later.
They roses of your attached photos are getting closer but too pink. YOu will see what I mean when
I attach the photo. It's a new camera so I need to figure out how to load it onto the PC.
Thanks again.
