I'm trying to find a very old version of a no care vineing miniture rose. My Grandmother had a country fence beside her house that was covered in them. They were never pruned or treated with anything and grew furiously. She lived there in the mid to late 1800's and I saw them when my father took over the house and property. The house was located in Southern Illinois. Any ideas?

Could you give us a little more info. like what color, form, scent,etc. did the blooms have? How high did the canes reach? How far south did he live?

Climbing Cécile Brünner was my first choice also. I have one climbing a stucco pillar that is now being trained to arch around the ceiling of one of my patios. I hold up the soft canes with small metal cups/discs that adhere with household silicon as to be easily removed if necessary. I also paint them the same color as my stucco so they aren't shiney and visible. There is a small loop on the outer part of the disc to thread through a long garden twist-tie, garden tape or string. Works great!
