Hello,I've looked for a place that I could ask about this, and I figured I would try here. Does anyone know how I might find out which cultivar this rose is? (Picture in next post) I have a little bit of information about it:
—It was purchased from a local hardware store and planted between 1991 and 1994, so the variety must be at least that old
—It had a strong, delicious, almost-intoxicating rose scent when blooming (though it didn't smell quite like 'Mister Lincoln' to me)
—The flowers bloomed continually during the growing season, and were at least 4-5" wide
—I am led to assume that it is a hybrid tea rose, and I've identified several red cultivars which it might possibly be:
Mister Lincoln
Olympiad
Chrysler Imperial
Ingrid Bergman
Kardinal
Dolly Parton
Oklahoma
Loving Memory
Deep Secret
Forgotten Dreams
Fragrant Cloud
Love's Promise
Royal William/Fragrant Charm
Precious Platinum/Red Star
