Need help from down under - Alister Clark rose?

Posted by rockyflorida 8 (My Page) on

I got this rose mislabeled from the vendor and planted it. I was told it was probably Marjory Palmer but it is clearly a climber and is growing very quickly with large not very dark green leaves, a medium strong scent. I assume it is one of Roses Unlimited's other Alister Clark roses. Any ideas? Thank you.

The rose may be Cicely Lascelles - see link for comparison.

The red stamens are a giveaway sign for 'Gloire des Rosamones' aka 'Ragged Robin'.

Thanks for your suggestions. I was giving up hope. But the color is definitely not as red as Ragged Robin picture and the pink is not as delicate as the Cindy Lascelles. These are the only pink Alister Clark roses that Roses Unlimited has and it is definitely not a polyantha or a hybrid tea and it certainly is growing like a climber or rambler:

Okay - try this link - there are a list of AC roses with accompanying pictures taken by a N.Z. friend.

I know Kitty Kininmonth isn't on the list you posted, but gee it looks like one of her in full bloom.
Are the flower's petals really silky looking as if they oculd be a girl's dancing dress?

It is a lovely rose and I was surprised at the variety in Alister Clarke roses and how pretty they are. The kitty rose does look close.
