Its color is unique. This rose is gorgeous in every stage, and I enjoy taking multiple pictures, hoping to catch it at its best. Distant Drums start as a blend of reddish pink on the outer petals and tan on the inside. When fully open, the ruffled petals transform into an orchid pink and yellow. I found my plant at Berridge Nursery while picking up another plant I’d been agonizing over. The marketing picture drew me in, and now that I have seen it in real life, I am glad I added this beauty to my garden.
