HI..I've been trying to identify this rose I found at the house we bought 2 years ago, and it suddenly hit me that I may have been having so much trouble because I was looking in the wrong spot. It may have something to do with the fact I've been reading about 4-6" blooms and this one only has approx. 2" blooms...anyway..small description:

5 small leaflets per leaf

SLIGHTLY curved needle like thorns

Purple buds that open into a pure lavender color

Full flowers with no stamens (at least none showing..I believe it's called fully double after my searches, but I'm new so...)

oh yeah...it's about 4' tall right now, once blooming and the older canes turn woody but put on flowers

Don't expect an ID but some names of possible mini's that I can look up would be greatly appreciated. (I've tried the ID this rose forum with no luck) Don't have pics yet as it still too chilly here for buds and blooms

Thanks in advance
