Sorry to hear of your mother-in-law. Also sorry I dont have the name of my rose but it is a dandy, bought it at lowes last summer and it has performed well from day one. It is not a knockout rose but had multiple sizable yellow roses. At the same time I bought a red one which didnt do well at all and in fact has no leaves on it at all but the yellow one Im quite proud of and am trying to clone the yellow one now. I also had no insect problems with this rose. Im in central indy and have had our share of freezes but look at this plant. I hope this helps and good luck.

Here are a few pics of this rose during the summer for effect. These flowers wide open are about 3 inches.

That does look like a very nice rose HummerSteve. If you find the name, please let me know.

I'd suggest 'Dr. Brownell'. Its on its own roots, tidy glossy foliage and never a problem here for me. Also has a nice fragrance.

Thanks tsugajunkie - I read up on the rose & it looks like a winner.

Hi,
A really nice rose that is super hardy and needs no maintenance what so ever is "The Fairy". It's a light pink rose, which doesn't get too tall. Google it for pics. It's a great rose. I've had mine for years.
