Hi

I went to an open garden on Sunday and loved the attached rose.
Does
anyone know which one it is?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Nice photo! I have no clue. But I can
suggest a source:

www.helpmefind.com
search on roses

You can specify color (red or red blend?
pink or pink blend?), bloom form (it looks
like a single), and the rose looks like a
climber or rambler. All those factors can
narrow down your search, if no one comes
forward to ID it.

In future, it might help to check for a metal
tag near the bottom of the rose. Sometimes
those remain, even years after planting.

I did go scurrying around looking for a tag but sadly no luck. I also went off to try and find the owner but he/she wasnt around. From photos I;ve seen of American Pillar it doesnt look like the rose I saw. I'll try the database but I've already had a quick look and the database doesnt have images for all the roses.

Thanks for your help.
