Re: parentage, according the Jackson & Perkins catalog/web site it's a cross of Melodie Parfume'e and New Zealand.

Have you had a chance to smell it? -It's parent "Melodee Perfume" is one of my favorite rose scents, but is said to be "stingy" in blooms after initial spring flush. J&P claims it has a great scent, but doesn't go into much detail. --I'm weighing it against "Sweet Intoxication" (also with Melodee P. parentage). Given Intoxication's 40 member "excellent" rating, it might be the better choice!

I have grown this for several years and the scent is very strong, on par with other heavily scented lavender roses

Barbra's Baby

Me photographing my magical new pink rose that grew off a red rose. What a mystery… I call her Barbra’s Baby!
Introducing Barbra’s Baby ????
Discovered by @barbrastreisand, this hybrid tea rose captivates with velvety petals in a harmonious blend of pink, peach, and golden hues. ???? Pure elegance, from top to bottom. ✨#rosefarm #day24 #25daysofroses

They say that it is a sport of the Adam Red HT from 1993 called Lasting Love
https://www.instagram.com/aprilandashleys/p/DD-LontSE7u/
Has a great fragrance. And one day I noticed off its same stem, a pink rose appeared. It's a red rose, okay? A pink rose appeared. I've named it Barbra's Baby."
Discussing the new rose, Streisand mentioned the careful scrutiny it underwent, stating, "Barbra's Baby is going to make its appearance into the world, folks."

Added, thank you! 'Le Grand Huit' (Lasting Love) by Adam has sported several times. See also 'Parfum Royal' and 'La Côte d'Emeraude'. 'Barbra's Baby' seems to be similar to the latter.

Double Delight isn't a bad plant, and there are much better actual plants out there, however the coloring of DD just can't be beat in the realm of bi-colors. And, they smell amazing. In Houston it may get a touch of mildew in the spring, or a little blackspot. Nothing tragic.
Double Delight is a garden staple and it's easy to see why it has stuck around so long. Everyone stops to gawk at it, everyone has to put their nose in it, and everyone loves it. It's a bit like having an antique car...sure, there are more reliable and more comfortable newer cars available, but the style and cache of this "oldie but goodie" just can't be beat. IMO, they certainly don't make them like this anymore.

Cherry Parfait here resembles Double Delight very much. It doesn't have any scent to compare, but it grows without the fungal issues and keep pushing new flowers when Double Delight stops. If you love the Double Delight coloring and don't have to have the scent, but want a stronger grower with healthier foliage, try Cherry Parfait.

Where does this colour changing ability come from? Would it originally have been inherited form a China rose like 'Archduc Charles'?

Quite possibly. Some China roses deepen with age, heat and UV. European (and American) types fade.

I believe an important element is 'Rosa foetida bicolor' which is found in the ancestry of many (if not all) red/yellow bicolor roses. This rose has a high concentration of anthocyanin pigments (for red) on the upper side of its petals and an equally high concentration of carotenoid pigments (for yellow) on the lower side. These pigments are then found in varying combinations in its descendants. A good example is 'Rumba', where the red components deepen with time. It is thought that with UV light, biosynthesis of anthocyanins progresses in the direction of higher frequencies of light absorption (darker colours), while biosynthesis of the carotenoids progresses towards lower frequencies of light absorption (orange to light yellow to almost colourless). The resulting effect is that the rose seems to become redder with time. "The Chemistry of Rose Pigments" (1991) by Swiss chemist Conrad Hans Eugster gives a detailed description of these pigments and processes as relating to roses.

Thanks for that. Interesting to know, and explains how the 'Charisma' in my garden works.

I hear that a lot (about Cherry Parfait being similar to Double Delight) but after comparing both roses in their glory at the International Test Rose Garden in Portland, I see why people say that and yet there's something about Double Delight's coloring that is more complex than Cherry Parfait. Maybe it's that there is more yellow in it.

For me, Cherry Parfait has not personality or charm. The flowers and color change on Double Delight are much more elegant. It's strange how some roses have that indescribable something, while others of very similar coloring lack.
