Betty Boop Rose

I can't say that the name Betty Boop does a lot for me. But there is no denying the flower...stunning. And would you believe that the 2 pictures on this page are from the same bush?

The one below looks a little like a darker version of "Tequilla Sunrise" but I can assure you it isn't.
