My Favorite Double Pink
I tried to find a photo, do you have one?
My favorite double pink is still my "Rosie Girl NoID."
I'm hoping she'll bloom more often now that she is under the lights! :-)
Beautiful plants ladies!
I got it from Bluebird, they have no picture , nor does first class. It's a tight double rose looking bloom that opens small and gets bigger as days go on. Long time bloomer. Janinich has been sick. Maybe she can pot a picture. I have leaves down but might get another plant :))
It's outstanding I've never seen another like it.
South Shore Rose (E. Gross)
AVSA Registration: 7023
Double pink two-tone ruffled with some rose shading. Medium green longifolia quilted
Jannich nice seeing you back hope your feeling better. Is your South Shore Rose blooming ? Thanks, Allison
Jannich how is your plant doing did the blooms open up ?

I hope you put leaves down ! It's one of my favorites I have couple leaves down but might have to get another plant :))
I love Raphsody Rose. Not completely double but two tone pink with semidouble to double blooms. Mine just finished blooming so I can't show a picture. It's an Optimira plant from the Raphsody series.
Allison that AV is gorgeous! I love it.
I sent Jannich the Mom plant and I think I only have one baby growing so I am going to have to buy another one !
I got it fromViolet Gallery :))
Jannich do you have a picture ?
It's double pink two-tone ruffled some rose shading. But FC has not picture. I like the longifolia foliage also.
Critter...I think your NoID is my favorite double pink also *laugh*
The leaves are very pretty girl foliage it looks like.
Reminds me of the tiny limelight leaves.
Yep, girl foliage... I've got a couple of nice plantlets coming along, so I'll add her to your wish list!
Here she is, blooming again! With 'Rosie Girl NoID' are 'Peppermint Girl', 'Purple Bouquet NoID', and 'Rob's Bunny Hop'.
allison..you know i think one of the noid i bought is a double pink..will have to look at it again...this one pictured is kind of neat...maroonish with white edges..
Plants are so pretty Jill !
Nanna I looked up Rhapsody Rose in First Class she is so pretty !
Says she is double pink shaded. FC picture.
that is very pretty....hey it's past my bedtime...gotta be at gym at 530am...lol
I have Sassy Shell a pretty double pink girl foliage Av
I really have a lot of double pink flowering AV's I like.lol
A new one I grew by leaf it full of buds and blooming.
It's a wasp to me flowers don't look like wasp but sure is beautiful :))
Vespa Sensation (T. Moreno) Double dark pink wasp. Dark Green serrated, red back, variable bustled foliage. Standard
My Pride's Pink trail is so pretty in bloom too! with it's double pink star flowers .
You do this just so I will keep looking up names in FC, don't you?? LOL! 'Pride's Pink Trail' really is a lovely one... The description doesn't mention it, but the photo shows such heavy veining on the leaves, they look like the "clacamus" foliage on my 'Winnie the Pooh'. Actually, the foliage is similar to 'Yesterday's Valentine' trailing AV, I think.
