I'm not certain, but I wonder if it might be Molyneux. Someone who has that rose might be able to give you a more certain answer. It's very pretty, though. What climbing rose did you order?

It could be Molyneux, but the button eye says no, I think.

Golden Celebration?

Hi Ingrid. I ordered the “a shropshire lad” until it bloom the first yellow flower... lol

They have several yellows that look similar. I would say not golden celebration. The first pic looks a lot like my Charlotte. I do not have molineux. Here’s my Charlotte from last season...

I agree with Kelly--not Golden Celebration. Diane

Is it fragrant?

Yes.

Kelly Tregaskis Collova How's the scent on your Charlotte? I saw Charlotte with lots of blooms at nearby rose park but I could not detect any scent. Thanks for the info.

I am not sure. I will have to wait until I have some blooms. Everything is still waking up here…

dianela7bnorthal Thank you for posting those amazing pics. Your charlotte is way better than rose park's.

Thank you Straw your roses always look perfect. My Charlotte pictures are from last year. This year they just died without any obvious reason. I had 6 and they are all dead. The roses around them are looking great so I am still unsure of what happened specially being 6 plants at the same time.

Thanks for all the responses. Here are some photos for this rose after I planted her for couple months.

Ooh. Maybe Molineux or Grace?

This is Grace here.

Lisa: I have both Teasing Georgia and Golden Celebration and yours look more like Teasing Georgia (faint fruity scent), versus Golden Celebration with fabulous scent (10 times better than Teasing Georgia). Golden Celebration smells amazing, like fresh lemon-cupcakes from the oven, versus barely a fruity scent with Teasing Georgia.

Golden Celebration keeps it yellow color better, versus Teasing Georgia fades more like your pic. above. Both throws long canes, but Teasing Georgia does more cluster blooming at the top.

dianela7bnorthal I'm so sorry that your 6 Charlotte died. Were they grafted on Dr.Huey? Dr. Huey prefers drier & alkaline soil. Dr.Huey decays with tons of acidic rain. If there are rocks below that block drainage, Dr.Huey dies. Dr.Huey-rootstock doesn't last long in my climate, unless a place has fast drainage, like a 3-gallon bucket of water can drain within a few minutes at 2 feet deep.

My garden is no spray for the past 22 years, and digging deep for drainage is the key for my roses' health, besides sulfate of potash.

Straw they were grafted in Dr. Huey, but the area has very good drainage (on top of a small mountain with sandstone underneath). I have maybe other 20 austins on the same bed also grafted that are fine so i am cluless. I am gld you mentioned Huey doesnt like poor Drainage, because my other property has terrible bad red clay that is like mix of concrete and glue. I am going to try and expand my own root collection there instead of Dr. Huey. My other house has super blue hydranges but this one has sort of lavender pink ones (all endless summer) I guess that has made me think my soil here must be closer to neutral, while the other place has acidic soil. I have never tested it.

Looks similar to my teasing georgia, except the bright yellow photos.

keep in mind i have none of the others to compare.
