Does anyone think that this rose is my unidentified rose in the Ringling Rose Garden? I posted a picture of it below.

I doubt it would be California Dreaming, which was only released for the first time this year, and only through one California nursery (Regan's). If you have had this rose longer than that, and you got it from somewhere else, then it's probably some other rose. Your rose bears a striking resemblance, however, to Lynn Anderson. Take a look at that rose, perhaps. Ms. Anderson is usually a pretty easy rose to recognize, as the plant grows like a rocket and straight up. The study name for the plant when it was still a seedling was "Oh my god!". Is this one a vigorous grower?

Would it be possible to exchange more photos of this rose? Since I noticed it was from Conard-pyle, I thought it may have come in as an extra from Conard pyle as a test rose before it was developed and got overlooked in our plant nursery. It seldom happens that when we receive a years test rose we accidently receive five instead of four and the extra gets potted up and put in the nursery as an extra. It is not out of the question that an untagged rose got planted. I have been working on my unidentified list for two years and have it down from appr 150 to 10. I believed this rose to be Lynn Anderson also but after seeing this one in the mag I am not so sure. I do know it has really taken off since I planted it last year. The curator believed it to be Dream Come True so told me to plant it. After it bloomed I realized it was not what we thought. I have another post on "What is this" on HMF. Thank you so much for your quick response.
