"Antique" climbing rose

I'm posting this because whoever named this rose clearly did it before SEO was invented because it is completely unsearchable. I ordered this rose from heirloom roses a little less than two years ago. At the time, the picture they had with it was actually the picture of "Heirloom", an equally poorly named rose. So far mine hasn't bloomed, but the picture has changed on their website to sort of a white rose with pink edges. When I try to look at HMF, they also have a rose named "Antique" listed but the picture looks kind of different again, and has different introduction dates.


Now, the question I have, this rose is in part sun and and it says shade tolerant but it is growing very slowly and hasn't bloomed yet. It's maybe 3 feet tall. I don't mind waiting a long time for it to take off but I'm very curious what it might actually look like and if anyone grows it and also had slow growth or maybe it's just that it's not getting enough light in the spot. The leaves are a nice dark green.
