Name That Rose!

Can you name this Rose?

20 years ago

Hi,

I saw these at a park in Lakeland ,Florida where I live. They didn't have a name tag on them. They aren't that pretty singularly, but I like the way they look all in clusters. Some were white, some white with lots of pink hue in them. Would anyone be able to indentify them?

One picture is below and a link also is included to my Yahoo pages with more photos of them. When you get to it click on the album that says, "Name that Rose"

Thanks, Cheryl.

Some kind of Rosa wichurana derivative, akin to 'The Fairy'. 'Little White Pet' has a differnt genetic history, flower structure and foliage.

Looks like my Fairy rose. Mine blooms pink and then the blooms turn almost white as they age. Nice little shrub rose. (I just found a little red hip on mine and planted the seed to see what it would do)

Foliage does not look like Fairy, IMHO, more like Clothilde.

I expect it is one of the Meilland landscape shrubs.
