Rosa 'Leander'

A popular cultivar, with a range of apricot hues that express themselves variously, depending on weather and growing conditions.

Here's the page for this rose in the database. Lots of lovely photos of it there, showing even better than my banner shot the range of colors you might see in its blooms.
English Shrub Rose (Rosa 'Leander')

Belatedly, here's the source shot for the banner

Such a delicate banner, as rose banners usually are. Delicately beautiful!

Well done.
