Name That Rose!

Can anyone help me identify this rose?

15 years ago

Hi, I have two rooted cuttings from this rose. It is at the house we currently rent. It is very hardy with little care and tolerates the drought and cold quite well. It grows as a bush only about 2 2 1/2 feet tall. The flowers are small and measure about an inch to 1 1/2.

I agree that X-Rated has similar color, but the bloom shape on mine is very differrent than the rose in the photo, more like a little hybrid tea.

The rose in question has globular blooms, elongated peduncles and thornlessness which makes me suspect it could be an old garden rose of some kind. Maybe a polyantha or one of the Koster series.

At any rate, my suggestion would be to pose the same question on the Antique Roses forum and see if one of their heritage rose experts recognizes your pretty little rose:

It looks like Teasing Georgia. I love those flowers in the vase ! Would you please let us know how tall the bush is, and what zone you are in? I always like Teasing Georgia but I'm concerned about how tall it might get for my abundant rain zone 5a area.

Thanks. I looked up Radiance on the web, too, and didn't find Climbing Radiance either. The reason I had ruled out Radiance was because the description I saw of it said it was a repeat bloomer and this one is not. It has one flush of flowers in mid to late spring and that's it. In the past seven years I've never seen it produce even one flower later in the season. I did not mention thorns in my description above. It does have thorns, but if you look closely at the photos above, you can see it is not partcularly thorny. Thorns, except on old canes, are small, recurved, and spaced about an inch apart.

The pink one looks like Pink Peace to me. The color and shape are right but that white picotee edge is a dead give away. Do you have more pictures of the second one?
