The name is bold and the flowers deliver on the promise: deep red on the face, vivid yellow on the reverse, giving each cupped to high-centered bloom a bicolor drama that reads from across the garden. Christian Bédard bred Ketchup & Mustard for Weeks Wholesale Rose Grower and released it in 2012, and the All-America Rose Selection followed. The double flowers measure 3 to 4 inches across, carry a mild apple tea fragrance, and arrive in clusters on an upright bushy shrub 4 to 5 feet tall and 3 to 4 feet wide.

Beyond the border, it performs well in cutting gardens and containers alike.
