I planted this rose winter of 2014 I think. I thought I was planting a climbing Dainty Bess. It's in a difficult spot (very dry, awful soil) but I was hoping (optimistically!) that the poor spot would help keep the size of the plant down overall. Anyway, two years on it has its first flowers, and it's clear even to a newbie like me that it's not Dainty Bess, booo! Obviously it was mislabelled.
Many way, the next question is what us it?! The colouring on the flowers reminds me of 'Blossomtime'. I have one up the back, but only recently planted so I can't really compare them easily.
Excuse the the brownish edges on the bloom, the weather has been awful (hot, mid-30s already) and a few things have been fried right in time for the first flush :(
