Is it getting enough sun? Roses need at least 6 hours of direct sun a day to bloom properly. Otherwise give it some fertilizer with a high middle number (phosphorous) which promotes flowers.

it gets the morning sun for a couple of hours then it dont see sun until evening for a few more hrs, so my guess would be it gets around 6, its flowered everyyear before now with beautiful red roses im thinking however that i might of unknowingly been neglecting them because ive never fed them anything other than water and for about 3 years before i moved in the were being neglected and left for dead, ive restored some of my nans original plants but not many survived the neglect,all thats really left of my nans is the nelly moser,5 or 6 rose bushes, climbing rose, viburnum opulus and a couple of other shrubby looking bushes
