My RVR "Mel's Heritage" turned out to be some kind of red blooming wichuriana. My "New Dawn" bloomed purple, so obviously mislabeled. That one, especially, wasted so much of my time planning, watering, tending to it only to have it turn out to be totally and utterly useless to me, as purple doesn't work in my garden :(

I'm so glad I ordered a backup Mel's Heritage from Paul Barden, back when he offered some of his roses on a limited basis. To the surprise of no one, Paul's rose came true to the label :) I would have been crushed if my only "Mel's Heritage" was a random mislabeled rose instead. Paul saved the day!

I hope the rest of what you received was what you did order.

Nope! I bought one called Heideroslein, which is supposed to be light pink, and it just popped a first bloom which is red!

I hope RVV will send you the correct one. It is very pretty in the pix here. I don't understand why HMF has the color as "yellow blend".

And they also messed up my order with a rose called Little Butch. It is supposed to be russet. What they sent to me bloomed red. And they will not answer my emails regarding receiving the wrong wroses.
