Can you ID this old rose, please?

It propagates from runners. Blooms once in spring, no repeat. Scent is similar to Gertrude Jekyll, but not nearly as strong. It grows 3-4 feet tall in my garden. Is there anything else you need to know? Thanks!

Thank you! I looked it up, and yes, my rose does look just like it, foliage and all. I didn't see any mention of runners, but maybe they're more correctly called something else.

MG, I couldn't view many of the photos on your web site. Your house looks nice!

This rose suckers like crazy so rest assured it is properly identified.
