Can anyone help me ID this rose? Old rose on old homesite.
Comments (17)Your rose looks similar to a rose in the Sacramento Cemetery, our found rose, "Dr Peck's 12th Avenue Smoothie" is thornless, once blooming. Very fragrant. This found rose is thought to be the same as the Charles Lawson in commerce. Below is a link to a photo I took in the cemetery a few years ago. I liked this rose so much that I propagated it and planted it in my yard even though it is a once bloomer. It is quite vigorous and now takes up the back corner along the fence.

Comments (15)Definitely NOT Therese Bugnet. Leaves and cane color are not right, and Therese's bloom form is different. I would also vote against much rugosa influence...leaves are not right for rugosa. Looks similar to R. gallica officinalis, except bloom form is not quite the same. But you say this is an immature sucker so perhaps we're not seeing a representative bloom. Gallicas are known for suckering and traveling around quite a bit. Unfortunately, there is a possibility it could be a sucker off an open pollenated seedling of a gallica or damask. I've seen OP gallica seedlings at cnetter's place here in Denver, and they can be all over the place in terms of bloom form and plant structure. You mention "rambler" - is it throwing out long, supple canes, or just suckering underground? A true rambler would be throwing out long, supple canes. Gallicas (and other roses) move around by sending out underground suckers. Do you have a photo of an unopened bud? Nancy...See MoreNew house, old roses-part 2. White rose ID
Comments (19)I agree that it is probably FKD. If you look at the pictures of that rose on HMF, it shows several with pink streaks on the buds, and also blooms appearing more double than 36 petals, and also clusters of blooms. In addition, there is one showing buds which look identical to those posted by allencia. Jackie...See MorePlease help ID my 90 yr old Grammys rose
