I found my rose at Home Depot under the name "Dreamy Nights". After much research, I identified it as a Francois, which is a Romantica. It is resistant to diseases and was untroubled by pests until recently-unfortunately, cutter bees love the new growth, so they've dessicated most of those pretty new leaves. However, the blooms are very full and long-lasting--each stays lovely for a week before falling off on its own when it's done! Definitely a good rose for those who love the OGR look with little upkeep needed.--A 2007 update--Francois proved to be very BS prone in my garden, but he bloomed with abandon and was such a cheery little rose. Regretfully, he was replaced this year during the culling of the roses (due to a change in color scheme) so hopefully he's happily blooming for his new owner.
