Growing conditions makes a huge difference.
South Seas, Frist Prize, Medallion, Brandy, French Perfume, are a few that come to mind.
There are probably newer varieties with which I am less familiar. Good luck!

Hi Robert, thanks for the wonderful suggestions, i already have South Seas and First Prize in my garden. I will check the availability of other roses.

Some huge flowers over balance their plants. David Austin's 'Golden Celebration' offers, for those who have room for it, huge gold blooms on a large, vigorous and well foliaged plant. I understand it can be trained as a climber.
The largest hybrid perpetual is probably 'Paul Neyron'. In India, you might get a decent sized plant; for me in New York state, it was a one cane wonder.

Hi Nastarana, thanks for your great suggestions. Golden Celebrations was in my wish-list for so long, i will buy once its is available. Here in India it is very difficult to get rose varieties in nurseries, also the big rose companies like David Austin, Heirloom Roses, Ludwig's etc are not available. The Paul Neyron rose is growing bushier but it rarely blooms unlike my other roses.

I agree with Mr. Rippetoe that local conditions play a big role, e.g., in my location Paul Neyron blooms are only average size.
Medallion grows pretty large for me, but my consistently largest blooms (from over 100 cultivars) are from Papa Meilland. But that may be only because he finds my conditions perfect…

Hello Lee, yes i'm planning to buy the Medallion rose, i have Papa Meilland in my garden but the plant is very small as its been only 2-3 months since i brought it, it bloomed 2 times but the blooms were average size due to the plant being small. I have big hopes for Papa Meilland ????.

Using HMF’s advanced search, under “bloom characteristics”, you can search all roses for extra large blooms, and then add in any number or other characteristics, such as color, to limit the search to a manageable number.

Hi, can someone please help me identify the rose?
I bought this rose from a local nursery and i had it for over 2 years now, the colour is deep red, there is mild to no fragrance. The main identification is that it has a huge pistil which is unlike any rose i seen before. so can someone help me identify the rose.
Thanks

It's called proliferation, what happened to Your rose. Take a look at the photo's in the glossary (left column)...
And maybe look it up on the internet: Proliferation in plants.
One of many mutations or disorders that can affect plants, proliferation is when one or more buds form in an already open bloom. The reason for this is not fully understood but, usually, not all blooms are affected.

Hi, thanks for replying. I don't think this is proliferation cause I had this rose for more than 2 years now and all the flowers till now are like this only. I witnessed proliferation on some other roses i have few times but it rarely happens and not all the blooms are affected.

Possibly a Florists Rose. Check out the Members Comments in ‘MEIkerdobler‘.

There are the Red Eye Rose to find on the internet and The Red Green Eye rose. A hint from rose-friend Marnix.
Other florist roses with proliferation are: Flash Eye and Rive Gauche.

What's the name of this rose? I would suggest: Go to the nursery, where You bought it... and ask them.

Here in India most of the local nursery don't sell rose by name, even they wont be knowing the name. They get these roses in bulk from all over the country. Even the producers wont attach a name card or ID for the roses.
