I have a tall rose bush at the end of my home that my mother-in-law planted when my husband was a child. He's now 31 yrs old and his mother passed in 2016. I would like to know the name of this plant and if I'm able to take a cutting and plant it elsewhere. Also need to know how far to cut it back when winter comes. My father-in-law used to cut it back yearly but since her passing he hasn't touched it.
I googled types of rose bushes and the flowers that mostly matched mine were dogwood and beach rose.
I brought it up in a previous post but I believe that people have just forgotten about it, which is fine. They believed it was a Dr. Huey. One lady didn't seem to sure about that so she wanted more information.
So I'm posting all the photos again and giving the information that was requested. The only question I couldn't answer was hips, I don't know what that means. If someone can explain that to me I might be able to answer.
-It's very tall
-Slight fragrant smell outside but if I bring them inside the smell is much stronger.
- Flower size I'd say ranges from small to medium
-Color is either pink or red
-Blooms in spring & summer (until mid- August)
-Stays pretty green thru out the winter months.
-Also if you place fencing around it the bush seems to somewhat climb, I have to train it tho.
