I’ve taken some rose cuttings from one of the holiday homes I clean yesterday . Oddly enough I don’t take my camera to work with me  Wink . So the photo was take while doing a drive past today. Which is why it’s not great. Can’t spend to long taking photos when there’s guests in.

I think it’s a Kew rambler . https://www.davidaustinroses.co.uk/products/kew-rambler

I’m I even close?
Answered my own question. It’s a dog rose
Having studied the photo and the link I was just about to say Dog Rose - but you already had!!
I’ve just been given a David Austin bare root rambling rose as an early Christmas present  Cool by the lady I help with 2 holiday cottage change overs. 
It’s Francis E. Lester . Had to look it up as rose names mean nothing to me   Blush . It’s beautiful. 
Bobs going to have to build me a big arch for it to climb over    Big Grin .

What a beautiful rose SC! I love it! Smile
Did she give it to you to stop you taking cuttings of hers? Wink

Big Grin  Quite possibly
I love that! I hope it grows well for you. A couple of my new ones didn't do well this year as it was cold and then very dry but I did manage a couple of cuttings from a friends cre climbing rose.

Love my dog roses in my hedge.
I’ve been waiting over 12 months for this to flower. And oh was it worth the wait  Heart .  
This is from a cutting I took from a rose that was in a bouquet of flowers back in 2021. The rose was a very unusual mauve. It obviously must of been dyed. Because this definitely isn’t. But I really don’t mind, because this is beautiful.

Any idea what it might be? Not that it matters.
No idea, sorry but to dye a rose mauve when its such a lovely colour strikes me as vandalism!
I vaguely remember you asking whether a cutting from a bouquet would take...................and you've proved it can.
