How do you not have a thousand pollen thrips everywhere? These are immaculate
Don’t jinx it 
. I’ve had serious thrip damage on my nectarines, not much on roses. Maybe, my full-sized nectarine tree is the trap tree.

I’ve tried three times to acquire a rose (I just got my last one on sale a month ago). Its been a process, but I hope once it blooms it ends up being the right one.
The last one I received (a replacement after the one I had previously gotten had arrived almost dead in late November in Michigan) ended up being a Ketchup and Mustard rose. It is absolutely not have I wanted, but it is also the healthiest and most vigorous rose I’ve ever grown. It is crowded heavily by raspberries and is covered in blooms without even a speck of blackspot or any kind of disease. It is a shame I find it to be pretty ugly.

Ha, I had an ‘Oranges and Lemons’ rose in my front yard about 1995 that was so healthy and a show-stopper that someone dug it up and stole it midday!

Your rose looks like it could be Abracadabra, I have one and the blooms are identical.
