Please help me ID my favorite rose bush?

Hi all,

This was my favorite rose bush. We had to dig it up and pot it late last fall due to construction in the area. It hasn’t leafed out yet and we are in 7b. We trimmed it substantially and it scratches green in some parts, but zero signs of leafing out. Heartbroken about it and I want to buy a new one if you all could kindly help ID.

It was extremely fragrant, clustered blooms (many on a stem), roses about 2 in in diameter or so. Bush got to about 3.5 or 4 ft tall. Nasty thorns on this. It used to bloom all the way through fall.

Could I somehow take a cutting of it? No new growth this year so it’s only older, thick green.

Thank you!!

I’m in 7a….and several of my roses are taking their time growing and blooming….I’d hold off on getting rid of the rose if it’s not diseased….It’s absolutely beautiful….I think we & our roses are fighting a new kind of climate….and hopefully we’ll win. Good luck….
