Dear Wendy,

You are everywhere in the rose world! I think I have this rose....at our stable. Someone gave me a few cuttings without knowing what it was.... I think they said their daughter lived in Endland and maybe had it sent over here later? Mine seems to have slightly redder looking canes...but the same small prickles and very vertical v shaped growth with the pink clusters of blooms. I've had mine for about 2 years and it always blooms well and is pretty fast growing...although as a shrub I think it's quite unattractive and would put it in the back of a border.
