It is once flowering (June/July), has dark mossing on buds and stems, old rose fragrance, bush size 5 feet by 5 feet, very healthy.

Cuttings will take.

Answer 1

It looks like  a Floribundas either Abundance  or Humanily rose

Answer 2

It's so difficult trying to identify a rose from a photo but here are some possibilities.

William Lobb (aka Duchesse D'Istrie) this is a mossy rose as you described and grows to 5 or 6 feet.

Henri Martin,

Empereur de Maroc,

Charles de Mills,

Reine de Violettes.

These last four look like the example but the description does not mention mossiness.

hope that helps

Answer 3

It's called a moss rose.Sorry I don't know what it's proper name though. I have a really old one in my garden that my mother planted and she died 30 years ago.

*** Looking on Google images it could be Duchesse d'Istrie

Answer 4

A beautiful rose!  There are so many named and lost old  roses out there that the first clue you gave is that it is a moss rose.  I have two moss roses and one found rose that is some unknown moss.  I am sorry but there is little I can suggest other than browse some of the old rose websites such as Antique Rose Emporium.  Good luck and thanks for sharing.

Edit: Good guesses my Michael below.  I have Henry Martin and William Lobb and neither reminds me of those in the photos.  I had Charles De Mills, a gallica, but there is no moss on Charles de Mills.
