Wonderful rose hasn't stopped flowering since early June, and still going strong.

Love this Simbad, does it happen to be very prickly and loads of buds to a stalk? If so this may be my unknown rose in the front garden!

You know what, this rose has got to be worth having - all mine seem to flower for a couple of weeks and that's it. Going on my wish list.

It really is a beauty, most of my roses are loosing their leaves now but this one still looks great, doesn't suffer the dreaded blackspot either or any other diseases come to think of it, well worth buying Dawn I have 4 bushes planted together here.
Not really prickly Tetrarch but does have loads of flowers on each stem, wonder if yours is 'Ballerina' I have that too and it is really prickly, looks exactly the same as this, but the flowers on this one are double the size.

No dont think its Ballerina, isnt that a single pink with a whitish centre? Mine is very double but small, normally with 5 to 7 bud spray to a stem, nice smell, grows like a rambler, disease resistant and flowers till Christmas! Oh and was told it was a patio rose in its baby days! What a boo boo!

Yes Tetrarch, this picture doesn't show the flowers too well, but they are only single ones, better picture showing the flowers on page 3 of my pictures top row.
Yours sounds pretty, I have another few ground cover ones,not named varieties, that I bought from woolworths when they used to sell all the bare root shrubs and roses really cheaply, just bought to fill a bit of space when we moved here, they're huge,and if I cut them back they just grow twice as fast, think they're trying to take over the world,lol, root into the ground wherever they touch, but flower for such a long time, love them.
