| Altorama, take a look at Hansa. It sure looks like it to me. |

Hi Seil, I have Hansa, so I know it's not her, but I had not considered that it could be a Rugosa, I was sort of stuck on it being a Gallica. But it's worth a shot to check out some of the Rugosa's, I'll have a look at Suzanne Verrier's Rugosa book tonight.
Thanks!

| Alida, I also think the foliage looks like a Gallica, although I understand why seil thought it could be Hansa from the bloom. If you look under "gallica" on HelpMeFind there are several in that color range and you may find a match. Also, the Antique Roses forum has some folks that may help ID your pretty rose. |

| Its a Gallica of some sort, but I can't say I recognize it as a specific variety. I would almost say 'Officinalis' but its a bit too "ruffley" for that. |

| Thanks Paul, sometimes I think it looks like 'Agathe'...and sometimes not. Hopefully I can get more pictures this year. |
