I have several varieties but recently bought a rainbow. When I bought it, it had light pink flowers with beautiful yellow centers. It started to bloom again this past week and all the flowers are dark pink with no yellow anywhere. I am baffled, I saw the beautiful rainbow roses with the yellow now they're gone, how is this even possible? It just switched colors on me?
 
I would give it some time and see.

I don't have any knock outs, but I know some rose colors change with temps. Like as in when it is hot the buds/flowers they produce are different than when it is a cooler time of the year.

But you might also want to check on what kind of root stock they are one.
 
If it was grafted, the rootstock could've taken over and the top died out. Take a look at your plant and see if it was grafted...if there is anything still alive above the graft, you might be able to save your rainbow and eliminate the pink.
