What is the variety/name of the rose?


Don't know. Could you identify it from a pic? It's not quite in
flower yet.

That's not as straightforward as it seems as some roses of different
varities have similar looking blooms. I'd really need to know whether
it's Hybrid Tea or Floribunda type.as they are pruned a bit
differently. How old is the rose, and does it tend to throw up several
stems each year or just the odd 1 or 2.?
