I haven't got a name for this rose yet.
This , I think, only happen once in a rose breeders life.  A sport.  I've grafted this rose called Burgundy Iceberg.  The colour of this rose is only Burgundy.  But this one is a mixture of Burgundy and Iceberg. It's beautiful and I hope that the other roses on this bush will also be this colour.  
At this time of year we get lots of hot spells and the roses open quickly and loose their beauty in a matter of two or more days.  You can water them more regularly to cool off the bushes a bit and force the roses to keep their beauty a little bit longer...
Remember to spray for black spot and red spider mite in this hot time of the year.
