First Rose opening in my garden
I have a number of roses that I do not know the names of because they were unlabelled when I bought them. Does anyone recogise this one?
What else?
This photo is of species Rosa.
See who else has plants in genus Rosa.
This photo is of "Rose" in Chrispook's garden

I don't know much about Roses, i must admit. But with the named varieties of double tuberous Begonias, as i understand, any new variety is supposed to be grown for at least 5 years before a name is given - i think they use a combination of letters and numbers to keep a record of the parent plants. If i understand correctly, the idea is to try and make sure new varieties will keep their own qualities and not grow back into one of the parent plants.
As i say i don't know much about roses, but it may be possible that there could be a similar set up in place for Roses - then again the shop might have simply lost the label?
Just a thought.
