I've been taking cuttings of my roses for years, so if something happens, and they revert back to their original rootstock of Dr. Huey, etc. I still have the rosebush the color I bought. There are many sites on-line with experienced folks to show you how to propagate roses from cuttings. I've had the best luck taking my cuttings in early spring. It's very disappointing spending good money on a rose bush, and having it revert back to the red rootstock which only blooms once a year.
It came up from the original root stock. Most commercially grown roses are grafted onto hardier root stock. What a lovely rose though!
Obviously your white rose bush was grafted on this red rose stock. It is beautiful! Enjoy!
Its a beaut.
Likely, the white bush was grafted onto a red rose root and when your husband cut it down, he cut it all the way to the root and the white graft is gone. This is lovely, enjoy!
