Many similiarly "striped" or "streaked" roses fail to display their characteristic color pattern when exposed to high temperatures. Scentimental, for instance, quickly reverts to solid red as the temps soar. Mockin Bird is one of the few such roses that continue to produce red and white bi-color roses in my yard even as the mercury climbs into the mid 90'sF.
