Identifying a Fragrant Illinois Rose: 'Talisman' or 'Compassion'?

Chris sent photos of a pink-apricot-yellow rose with "Juicy Fruit" fragrance. Jay's initial ID: 'Talisman' (older rose, yellow inside petals). When Chris mentioned a 4-foot bush in Dublin (not a climber), Jay revised to 'Compassion'—classified as a climber but often grows as a 5-foot shrub.

Verification

Check photos at HelpMeFind 'Compassion' page—click "Large Flowered Climber" then "Photos" for color variations.

Jay noted they saw 'Compassion' in Northern Ireland and it's a great rose.
