Senix Road Single

Hey guys,

I found this rose growing amongst other shrubs in a hedge and would love to identify it. The branches were about 4' long; hard to describe the growth pattern since it's competing with other plants. The flowers are an inch or less in diameter (despite looking larger in the pics) and seem to come in groups of 3 or 4. The fragrance is strong and reminiscent of rugosa roses. Thorns are sparse, but when present seem to be in pairs (see pics). I've attached photos of the flowers, leaves, stipules and buds. Let me know what you think!

Thanks for your help,

Chris

looks like Corylus to me. I grow Corylus and it looks like the rose you posted. Leaves, flowers, everything.

Hybrid Musks usually bear a resemblance to Rosa multiflora. I don't see that in your pictures.

Thank you all very much for the suggestions! I will look into all of them and try to come up with a match. Some of the species roses and "Corylus" definitely bear a strong resemblance.
I greatly appreciate it,
Chris
