 o
Roses from England

Posted by remontant z6B TN (My Page) on

I have a friend who lives in the north of England who needs some help i.d.ing these roses:

The first is a pink which she says is darker than the reverse which makes a strong contrast. It's sweetly scented. I think it looks like La Reine Victoria but I don't know.

The second is non-remontant. I think it looks like Mme. Plantier but I seek your learned opinions!

The last is a climber which she thinks is called 'Harlequin.'

Thanks!

Climber

Possibly 'Harlequin?'

That is one of the Spinossissimas. Possible 'William III'. Definitely not 'Harlequin'.

Thanks!

I have another update: the pink is non-remontant, so it's not Reine Victoria. And the white doesn't smell very citrus-y, so it's probably not Mme. Plantier. Any other guesses?

Hello,

the pink one looks like Rosa pimpinellifolia 'Double Pink' one of the Scots Roses
