Climbing rose ID
By Chrispook
Pest county, near Budapest, Hungary
I bought a pre packed rose this week from our local Tescos (We live in Hungary). It was grown by a Hungarian rose grower, but has a name in English on it. It says "CLG. New Parade. It's a red rose and grows 2-3m tall according to the label. I cannot find a rose with this name in my rose book (the one by Dr D Hessayon). Does anyone know any other name that this rose might be known by? I'm aware that some roses have a number of names!

Thanks guys. I looked at the website and "Parade" looks the same as the picture of the one I bought, so I think we found it.
