| I'm cleaning up the much neglected side of my house and it has a few roses that I don't remember the names of. Some I planted and some my mom planted probably 40 or 50 years ago.
The first to bloom is this one I planted probably 6 or 7 years ago and totally neglected since then. The blooms are mostly red with a pretty dash of white . Thanks for any help.

| A little fuzzy, but maybe it's Scentimental? Scentimental is a bushy floribunda that smells very nice. |

| Thanks for the reply. I looked at some online pics and that is probably it. A few more blooms opened this morning and I cut one for inside and took a better pic. The only thing is it isn't very fragrent though. Maybe from the plants neglect? |

| Thanks petaloid...looking at pics of the 2 possibilities to my rose, I'm leaning toward it being Forth of July. Especially cause of the way the centre of the bloom has the yellow. |

| Scentimental is very fragrant. Maybe it is Fourth of July, but Fourth of July is a climber I think. Does it seem to have long canes? |

| It has very long totally out of control canes. Will need a good pruning after the season. |

| I have a Purple Tiger floribunda that is very similar Don't let the purple in it's name mislead you, its actually more deep crimson than anything! :) |

| Thanks TNY78. But the more I look at pics the more I'm sure it is Fourth of July. |
