There are literally hundreds of pink roses, which makes it rather difficult to identify yours. It's a very pretty bloom in any case.

thanks , im wondering is it queen elizabeth or tournament of roses?

Long ago I grew 'Queen Elizabeth' and it wouldn't seem to be that. QE had matte leaves, a statuesque shrub, and bloom color that is a purer pink than this rose seems to have. As for 'Tournament of Roses', I've never grown it, but looking at its photos on Help-Me-Find (https://helpmefind.com/gardening/l.php?l=2.6072&tab=1), there are those same glossy, modern leaves and otherwise it appears similar, so more of a possibility.

thanks I'm still working on it

sent pics to the american rose society

Tiffany possibly? The petal count and habit are similar to Tiffany, plus on your 2nd pic there’s a bit of an apricot tinge that appears sometimes on Tiffany.

thanks , I wondered about that one i'll check it out further

thanks

Sometimes it can help to show the leaves front and back, and the thorns on the canes.

How tall does it get? Top photo looks like Queen Elizabeth, which is nearly, or is scentless. QE gets about 5' or more in Northern Iowa. It is probably taller in Southern California. Does it produce single blooms, or 4-5 blooms on a bloom structure which would be like QE?

Multi blooms i keep it at about 4 feet

i think it coulb be queen elizabeth

im waiting for new blooms to help me identify

thanks

After extensive research, I think it is indeed a Queen Elizabeth, probably a

n oler David Austin one

thanks everyone for your input

Rick, that's great that you've identified your mystery rose! Just FYI, Queen Elizabeth is a HT/grandiflora bred by Lammerts and introduced in 1954. Definitely not an Austin :-D

Oh man, when I saw the second pic in your original post on day one, my first thought was Tournament of Roses! I should have called it back then, lol. I grew TOR for many years until I lost it. I never grew QE. But that's great that you got to see TOR at Regan for confirmation.

thanks , i ws excited
