Rose identity? Tricky one

Does anyone know this rose type- it is very large like a rambler, and has coral buds that open to pale pink and mauve flower that fades to white. It is very beautiful and I’m super keen to grow one this year (photo is one in my neighbourhood-I might have to resort to knocking on the door!).

Ask for some cuttings when they do their winter pruning.

It does look unusually distinctive. The closest I can find is rosa chinensis.

Well the first thing to spring to mind is a hybrid musk called Cornelia, which can be grown as a shrub or climber.

Knock and ask. You might even make a new gardening friend😊

In London. Keen but lazy.

My thought was Cornelia also.

Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

Omori and Dovefromabove bijingo you’re right! That’s exactly the one, I’m going to order it and ask for a cutting as back up, thanks y’all!
