Pink Rose Bush?

In my front yard there are 4 red rose bushes that have been planted over 20 years ago. I live in a duplex and a pink rose bush bloomed today in the middle of the red roses. My landlord[he live in the other duplex and has for 50 years] said he didn't plant it, I didn't plant it and there are no other pink rose bushes in my neighborhood for birds to eat seeds from and dispose of their droppings. It has little pink blooms and is as tall as the red roses. I have some mystical ideas about how it got there. Do any of you believe in signs from beyond.

Pink Rose Bush?
Most definitely, yes, yes, yes!!!!!! Little miracles is what this world needs right now. In fact we could use some big miracles, but I guess we'll have to settle for the little ones. Believe whatever you need to believe and enjoy every minute of your miracle rose. One day you could be telling a story to you grandkids about the little pink rose. Enjoy!!!
Reply:Most roses are crosses of different rose specimens. It may be a lot like how occasionally a certain trait from a great great grandparent may randomly turn up in a decedent. Could still be the same rose, but most likely it may have a pink rose in it's family tree.
Reply:Are you sure it is a separate plant not a single stem that has gone pink. Roses can throw off sports. Color, growth size or leaf shape can mutate locally, in roses. By locally I mean one part of the plant can grow a different color flower or shape of leaf from the rest of the plant. Many climbing roses are sports of shrubs. If a plant is listed as Cl. or Climbing you know it was a sport of another rose. Climbing roses whose names are not prefaced with ‘Climbing’ or 'Cl' are bred by crossing two roses.


The different portion can be propagated and if the change holds steady with propagation it is a new rose. You can name it anything you want then.

Reply:Could it be a wild rose? They are pink, and they pop up quickly. http://images.google.com/images?um=1%26amp;tab...
