This a new one this year and the FFO on it this morning. It does not have the pink around the edges like it is supposed too.

I got BW two years ago but the deer ate the buds (Grrr). This year it's blooming nicely, but I, too, was expecting more than a soft creamy-yellow flower. Oh, well. They smell nice!

Mine opened up for the first time today too, and like yours it is a creamy yellow. However I looked closely and can see a faint pink edge, so I'm hoping that the pink will come on as the flowers age :)

Mine never did get any pink around the edge, but it's a keeper anyway! :P
