The graft on my Constance Spry is officially dead. It looked pitiful last year, and this year it's brown and crunchy. It never really took off anyway, so I'm not mourning it very much. There are lovely healthy canes coming from the rootstock, but I have no idea what it can be. Based on what I'm seeing so far, I may be inclined to move it and use it in the background somewhere.
Here's what I have: Blue-ish green leaves and stems. No sign of any disease so far (and some of my other more high-maintenance roses are already showing BS).
Not many thorns, though the ones it has are long and curved. Green like the stems.
Single white flowers with prominent yellow stamens, about 2" across. I didn't lay on the ground to see if it was fragrant -- with the current state of my allergies, I doubt I would have been able to smell it anyway.

Any ideas?
