Hello everyone. My daughtet-in-law brought me some nice rose cuttings from an empty lot ro try and root. One of them had a real nice rose ( see photo) could this be blue girl? The flower was about 4 inches across, lightly scented and almost Thornless. Thank you for your thoughts.

I know Blue Girl as strongly scented and a little more high-centered. But being from an empty lot in NM it could be.

Ditto what John said above about my Blue Girl being higher centered and very fragrant.

In my experience here in No. CA. in the Valley, as the weather gets colder, especially in winter when the temps get down in the 40's, the blooms of Blue Girl as well as other normally high-centered hybrid teas can appear more like the one above.
