Should I name it Hosstyle in Lavender, Hosstyle in Purple?

I don't have to choose a name until I send in the score sheet....

speaking of score sheet..
This is what I put for the fist score on 6/17/07... he next evaluation
won't be until the 2nd bloom, and am expecting it to do better.
Unfortunately I have already picked al of the Lemon Yellow ones, and
forgot to take any pix, and the pinks are turning out to be real duds. 3
&1/2 months after planting and only leaves and only 1 small bud on the
lite pink. and none on the deep pink.  I'll add this exact page to my
rose site later, as I have other important things to tend to this week.     
 
It's a pain to make charts on webtv, so use you imagination.  the next
pix is with no or little sun

this one has me a bit mystified, as to a specific fragrance ... it's a
real fruity sweet smell, does anyone have any idea of what lavender or
purple smells like? and I don't need a smart ass answer "They smell like
lavender an purple of course"!  

As I stated .. this one will do better on the second bloom.

now if you have forgotten what all these terms are, I re-send them with
the next pix of this rose with little or no sun shine.
