| I know it's an Austin, and it isn't a climber, but I don't know what it is, and I want another when I move! Help? |

| If it doesn't have much of a fragrance, then my guess is Charlotte. |

| The flowers on this are more of an apricot/tangerine than they are yellow. Also, it does have a very nice scent. I tried posting a couple more pictures, but apparently there's a one picture-per-thread limit. |

| Port Sunlight has 90 petals, apricot inside, lighter at the edges. The leaves and stems are bronzy red when young, then turn dark green. Rich tea fragrance, upright growth 5 height and 3 feet wide. Flowers are smaller than other Austins, 3" max. Does it sound like yours? |

| Hm. I'll have to look at the leaves... The smell is nice, yes, and the 3 inches max is right. I'm also looking at pictures of the Tamora and wondering. |

| How long have you have the rose? That will help narrow down what was available. Take a look at Pat Austin, Evelyn or Abraham Darby, common Ausins which would have been sold at garden centers. Recent Austin apricots are Lady Emma Hamilton and Tea Clipper. |

| I think it might be Charles Darwin. I have 22 Austins It looks the closest to it. |
