Pink Rose with Two Centers: Split Bloom, Not a Double Rose

Weather-Caused Split Blooms

Gardener photographed a pink rose appearing to have two centers/spirals. Asks if it's a "double rose" or mutation.

It's a Split Bloom

Some roses are prone to split blooms: a normal flower develops, then divides into two spirals. Caused by weather fluctuations (temperature/humidity shifts during bud formation). Not genetic, not a "twin," not a new variety. May not recur.

Nothing you did caused it. Just a quirk.
