Default Climbing rose id?

"sacha" wrote

I know this is one of those "how long is a piece of string?" questions
but I'd really like to id a rose we put up along a post and some rope
several years ago. There are thousands of roses so I know the chances
are slight. The buds are small and yellow at the base, whiter at the
tips, opening to rather blowsy but fairly small white flowers. It
flowers on and on and on.

Two questions...
Is it a large plant or quite small for a climber?
Do some flowers have a pink petal or two in a pure white flower?
