RE: Rose name

Kitty: If it were me, I would list it as: Rosa 'Peace' (climber). As you
probably know, roses are frequently sorted as hybrid teas, floribundas,
grandifloras, shrub, etc. with one of the categories being climbers.
Just out of curiosity, do you classify all the roses? So that the
regular Peace rose would read Rosa 'Peace' (hybrid tea)? Wow--that is a
tremendous amount of work. BTW, this is one of my favorite roses (along
with Double Delight).

Subject: [CHAT] Rose name

I'm working on the plant names list for our Display Gardens and need
some<br>help from the rosarians on the list.<br>One garden said they are
using Rosa 'Peace', a climbing rose. 'Peace' is<br>one that I do know
and it is a hybrid tea rose - a 4 footer. So I googled<br>around and
found there is a climbing version of this same hybrid tea rose.<br>But
it doesn't seem that anyone can agree on the name or that
everyone<br>agrees on one name to cover both roses. I have found it
listed variously<br>as:<br>Rosa 'Peace'<br>Rosa 'Peace
climber'<br>Climbing Peace Rose<br>Peace Rose<br><br>So, does anyone
know how this rose should be listed correctly botanically<br>while still
conveying that there is a difference between the hybrid tea and<br>the
hybrid tea climber that both use the same
name?<br><br>Kitty<br><br>---------------------------------------------------------------------<br>Support
