My plant was grown on its own roots. After a few years more (and several winters with temperatures below zero F) it has canes taller than 20 feet. They are strong and thick.. I don't know how to reach them to prune them!

This rose in my garden is a huge monster, growing at least 15 feet tall and even wider than 15 feet. It has mainly a spring bloom that lasts for 6 weeks. I should prune to see if it would help with a second bloom.

Listed as fragrant foliage but I can't find any references or any comments to that effect? Can anyone confirm and if so of what does the foliage smell of?

I certainly can't confirm that. I have a note that this file for 'Roundelay Climbing' was in existence with no breeder or date at the time when I added the discoverer of Langbecker. Peter Cox (1999 ref) says leathery foliage, and I have just gone out and smelled and crushed a leathery leaf of the bush 'Roundelay'. Not a sausage or a whiff of anything. I will change fragrant foliage to fragrant bloom.

It's what I suspected, an error along the way, but given this is a sport it wasn't out of the realm of possibility given unusual sports that have happened in rose history.
Thank you

An Aus sport that apparently reached Spain and Italy, judging by the photos. Maybe sports occurred in Europe too.
