RE: [Rose-list] Re: rose ID/source

Below is previous message.  Have info that suggests rose's name is Royal
Sunset.  Any comments/leads?

I have "eyed" a rose on a telephone pole for a few years on my commute home
and finally slammed on the brakes yesterday to look at the ID tag (metal).

The rose looks for all the world like a climbing 'Just Joey' but apparently
is called 'Sunset.'  Wonderful fragrance.  Ever heard of it?  I'm not "into"
teas, so I am unfamiliar with this plant.

As an aside, while I was trying to ID it, someone walked by and literally
ripped off a few flowers and asked me if I wanted them to rip some off for
me.  Of course I said no and had to control myself from just smacking them.
Don't get me started, I've had this happen in my own yard too, with kids and
adults.

For mine is a little old fashioned garden where the flowers come
together to praise the Lord and teach all who look upon them to do
likewise.
