This rose is apparently mislabelled as Rosa x centifolia, it lacks the moss of Rosa x centifolia “Simplex”/La Louise if that one has it but they have some similarities yet it lacks reddish thorns, but it’s standing a little shady. Or even rosa gallica or some root base? The flower was photographed with flash, the colour is a tiny bit less intense in vivo. I thought about r. rugosa var. rubra but it lacks the bushiness (2m high) and had no hips and it grows offshoots too.
May y’all help me in the identification of this rose.

The foliage makes it look a bit like one of the Rugosa roses.

Thank you, after some reconsideration i think it’s a Rugosa too, the ofshoots we’re probably cut off in time.

Maybe it was a Rugosa root stock that has taken over, something like 'Hollandica', although I have no idea if that or anything similar is still used in Europe for that purpose.

Dear Sirs!
More than 10 years ago, you sent me, among other varieties, grafts of the Veterans Honor variety, which failed this year. May I ask you again for new grafts?
Thank you and best regards

Some sources say Lady of Shalott is hardy to zone 4. Others say it's only to zone 5. I'd love to hear from anyone who has tried growing it in colder regions.

I'd say that reports of her hardiness are greatly exaggerated. Here in Zone 5b, an average winter will kill back 'Lady of Shalott' almost to the ground. That said, it *will* rally and produce blooms.

Just cut my first blooms from Sweet Chariot which was planted in the ground spring 2023. Very fragrant and gorgeous cerise color. As recommended I need to fertilize. Also this plant is in partial shade unfortunately. Will see how it progress es this year.
