I help maintain a Master Gardener Rose Garden. Some of our roses were donated twenty years ago, but without identification. I have one rose that maintains predominantly red canes but I have been unable to identify it. The plant habit is upright to 6 feet. Blooms are off red, with a shading of pink, about 5". Bloom form opens as high centered, but becomes irregular. I am looking for suggestions of possible identification.

Would this be a private or public garden? If private, how much can you share about zone and climate?
Have you IDed any other of the donations? The photo looks like mid-20thC. Would there be any common traits among the other donations which might give a clue? For example, are most from American breeders, any particular decade?

In adding the 1938 reference, I have presumed that Alister Clark’s Comtesse de Radziwill is ‘Princesse de Radziwill’.

None of the photographed roses appear to be “dark crimson colour with dark velvety purple shading”.

It is a Japanese or Chinese rose that many in the US are buying. There is a whole Japanese/Chinese rose craze right now. I can't afford them. Blue Moonstone is another, but I believe y'all have that one listed. They have the wildest shapes and colors! Look for Lucifer, Rose Royal, Juicy Terazza, Shalimar, Huanzi, Miyagi, Goddess of the Luo River, Wanshan, Plump Apricot, Gabriel, Domaine de Chantilly, Masora...there are tons on easy. I know people who buy them and are satisfied with the purchase.
