Please identify this rose
Please can you help me identify this rose. My mother recently passed away and we'd like to buy more of her favourite rose but we are not sure what it is.
Any suggestions appreciated. Thanks For some reason it won't let me upload the pictures. The rose was a yellowy-orange colour with a dark orange rim. lots of petals (Is that called a double?) i will try again to upload pics |

Another possibility is Judy Garland:
http://www.helpmefind.com/plant/pl.php?n=3547 Check out the plant height - 4'10". Does that sound about like your mother's rose? Rose size is another criterion you can use to narrow your search. Another possibility is Hiroshima's Children: http://www.helpmefind.com/plant/pl.php?n=3284 Your photos kind of look like a floribunda - several blooms growing on one stem - which is why I focussed on yellow blend Floribundas when I searched in helpmefind. If that's true, it helps narrow down the very wide field. If blooms tend to grow only one per stem it's more likely a Hybrid Tea. Don't be turned off by the first photo shown on a helpmefind page. If there are other photos (and there often are), you can see the great variety in photos and you might find one that looks like your mother's. Unfortunately there are very many roses that are bi- or multi-colored, and the most common color combinations (on modern roses) are yellow and redd or pink. Also, some roses are available in the UK, but not in the USA, and vice versa. Both of the roses I linked above were bred and introduced in the UK. I'm assuming it's a modern rose, but on the off-hand chance it was grown on its own roots (sometimes the case with modern shrubs), you can always try taking several cuttings and grow your own copies. The American Rose Society www.ars.org has articles on how to do that and you don't have to be a member to access those articles. The general technique should be the same on both sides of the Atlantic. I don't want to ask an insulting question, but you did check for a metal or plastic tag, right? Sometimes they can be very hard to find but it's worth looking. Anyway, good luck. Sometimes it's fairly easy to ID a rose from a photo, but more often it's very hard because of so many roses in existence. Gail |

ng.com... Try posting the picture on alt.binaries.pictures.gardens Graybeard Normally I would agree with that suggestion, but a lot of ISPs have dropped binary newsgroups. Gail |
