looks like a miniature or floribunda, at a
guess, but floribundas should get a cluster of
blooms, and yours looks like it gets single
blooms. The bloom does look familiar, but
I'm fond of striped roses, and probably look
at their pictures more than anything else.
I will make the same suggestion I did to the
other poster, check out
www.helpmefind.com
Bloom form looks like single or double.
Color is red blend or pink blend, striped.
I would limit the search to minis and
floribundas to start.
You can also check out some of the online
catalogs, such as
http://www.johnsminiatureroses.com/index.html
Try searching on Bicolor roses.
Yours looks a little bit like Stars & Stripes.
It's certainly a healthy looking little
rose and you obviously are taking very
good care of it.
Good luck finding its name.
