Name That Rose!

Very unique shaped white rose

16 years ago

This unknown is a very beautifully shaped rose. The outer petals reflex back like a daffodil.

I found it in the pot ghetto and assume that it is one that I rooted last year or the year before that. It has no tag, though, and is not one of the roses that I have in my garden.

What could it be?

Whatever it is, it's a keeper!

Does it have a scent? It looks like it might be Moulton Noisette....

Melva, One day it had a strong scent, but I haven't been able to detect it since then. Noisettes have a scent that is undetectable to my nose. It's a shame, huh? I've always heard how fragrant they are and now I've got a bunch of roses that my nose can't smell!
Thanks for the helpmefind link. This rose seems to be more perfectly shaped than the rose shown. The edges on Moulton Noisette look a little more ragged, for lack of a better word.
Do you have Moulton Noisette? Maybe this is one grown from a cutting of yours.

Yes I do and the blooms are very changeable frilly one day, and not frilly, the next..as for not being able to smell the Noisette;s...that truly is, a shame as some of them smell wonderful!
