Is this definitely a Rose?

It has long steams and thorns that look like a rose, but is it one? Its hanging on for dear life to a gate post but has plenty of flowers, cpuld i get some seeds pf it potentially and when? some of the flowers I seen today have now went brown and withersd

 

Hi @Greecko,

I'm sure it's a rose & may I say it's very pretty.
I think we need our very own Rose expert @wiseowl to answer your questions!

 

I think it looks great but doe need saving a little, its in a very bad spot and I' waiting someday for me to accidentally spray or chop it down, its very leggy but I imagine its a climbing rose? If there is even such a thing, as it has wrapped itself arund the post and spreading out

 

Yes it could well be a climbing rose . You could probably move it, as long as you dug up the root ball, I'm sure it would survive with a bit of TLC, manure & feed.
I planted a climbing Rose in my front garden earlier this year but it was very sad, so I decided to move it at the weekend...it's looking good at the moment , I dug a hole put some well rotted manure in the bottom & gave it a good water .
I think in your case because the rose has been there for a while you would probably be wise to wait until the autumn when the rose is dormant then move it.

 

Hmmm not sure it seems very very tall

It weirdly looks like a diff rose in my mums garden that we dont know what it is but thats a climbing one and has been there for years.

What are the leaves like @Greecko ko have you got a better picture of them? Are they shiney or dull and what colour green etc

It was the leaves that helped make the one in the other thread obvious

 

Can I just dig it up then? Any other methods for moving? It has been there for YEARS as the last people to live there was over 60 years ago

 

Ok so I need to count the leaves or the petals? The leaves themselves are small but very shiny light green, if that helps any?

 

Will do! What about the petal counting etc? Is there much point? It'll be fun finding a decent rootball, worried that there isn't mch, Ill try and get a photo of where its stuck. Shame its wasted where it is
