Coral pink rose please?

Hiya all,

I've a tricky colour to match, a coral/pink (nearly orange but not quite.) I'm stumped on a rose. Any ideas?

Hi Orchidlover

Not quite a coral rose but I have used the Cherry brandy rose a few times with coral. It is one of my favourite roses so I use it at every opportunity.

That's the only one I can think off.

Talea is a pale salmony pink, might compliment coral, but it is quite pastel. Calima is similar but a bit darker. Would Esperance go?

Mmmm thanks but there not right. Cherry Brandy although I adore, is too yellow. This requires more orange/pink. Colours are impossible to describe aren't they? We've all got a different perception.

Talea is beautiful pinky/apricot...am sure it would tie in...then again sounds like odd colours you ahve to work with...have you had a look on the flowers & plant bank on the flower council of holland website?
