Do you know this rose?

I inherited this sweet little rose from the previous owners.
It blooms all season, no scent. The white stuff on the leaves is just milk, just ignore that part please. :lol:

Do you know how old the rose bush is?

No, I have no idea unfortunately. We moved here five years ago, but this house is 114 years old, so there's really no telling when it was planted or by whom. I'll ask the man we bought the house from when I see him again, but he probably won't know, he's a little flakey! :lol:

Hi Guys,

I am 100% sure it is not Zephirine Drouhin, she has very strong perfume and she is very double.

Amitié,

Looks like Carefree Beauty. Definitely not ZD - looks nothing like the ZD in our garden.

again carefree beauty is fragrant, my vote goes for "jens monk" a hybrid rugosa with a very light scent, and great winter hardiness....

I have two that look just that named Angel Face, although I am a novice and yours is much older than mine.
