    I agree with @wiseowl that your rose is a Hybrid Tea @Snorky85, growing one rose to a stem.

    The rose below is a Floribunda (Iceberg) and the cluster of roses to the left are all on one stem which you can see below them. Most Floribunda's will produce up to and around a dozen flowers per stem with buds hidden and waiting to flower as the others die off. Once all the buds have grown and finished flowering I would cut the stem down to encourage further growth and flower heads. They take a bit of looking after as they need dead heading regularly so that the waiting buds can flower.

      Thanks @Sheal The pic you posted really highlights the difference between them.

      Really want to get these roses back in shape so really grateful for all your advice.
