The "rose from everywhere" - lots of discussion about it in the past. It has turned up in every Australian state, as well as in NZ and the US. There is no clear identification for it, but it isn't De la Grifferaie (a multiflora descendant), despite being given that label in some Australian public gardens.
The comments in the file are worth reading.

The depth and richness of it's damask fragrance is unmatched. Easily better than any of the other repeat flowering old roses I grow. Here in England it doesn't throw out octopus canes and is easily manageable as a tidy shrub.
My favourite rose for colour, form and fragrance. I grow it in a pot and am considering winding it around supports like an obelisk.

How has growing it in a pot gone? Im considering getting it for my patio but I am unsure how it would perform. Thanks

It grows well in a large pot! I've stuck 2 metal pins in the pot and wind some canes around where its possible and I get blooms all along the length. It just has to stay well watered to thrive.
