Is there a rose with variegated foliage?

Variegated Foliage.

There is a very aptly named rose called "Curiosity". It is a sport of the red and old gold ancient hybrid tea "Cleopatra."
The striking feature is the foliage: Deep red striped pink when young, deep glossy green striped cream when mature.
A fairly healthy rose, growing to around 3 ft. Blooms are faintly scented.
