Name That Rose!

ID this pink rose, please!

9 years ago

The roses in my grandfather's garden are beginning to bloom, and I'd like to (eventually) ID as many as I can.

The first one to bloom is this pink rose. It has a moderate, somewhat fruity scent, and it is likely fairly cold-hardy, as it didn't suffer much damage over the winter like a lot of the other bushes. This rosebush *may* be one of the older ones in the garden, which dates back to the 1960s.

I'm pretty sure I have the exact same rose. It's been around my family for decades, so I have no idea what it's called. It propagates very easily though, if it's more you're wanting. Cut off some of the long shoots and stick them in a pot, then keep it damp. Some of them will root.
