Kim, I think we may have the same rose listed under different names? Look at "Jerry's Moss".
I'm guessing the listings may need to be merged. Robert

I'm sorry Robert, I missed this old comment, but was convinced they are the same rose from your recent photos, so I've merged them. Thanks. Kim

Sounds good to me. I don't have any breeding record for this one.
Should be R. rugosa x 44 Stripe?

Are you still growing Jerry's Moss?

Rob, I think it's still here but languishing if I have it. I haven't looked for it in awhile. It has an awful growth habit, poor repeat, and covered in prickles.. I never tried doing anything with it.

Kim Rupert was kind enough to give me one of these, and a gracious neighbor let me plant it on his property where I can still enjoy it and work with it and where it is in full sun all day.
I can't say how big it will get, as it has only been in the ground since May, but can say that it smells great and blooms more or less continously. Beetles enjoy eating its buds, which for whatever reason is a problem with all and only my rugosa hybrids, with the sad exception of 'Summer Wine.'
I did take and root a single cutting that I have growing in the pot getto not enough of a sample to say it roots easily, but enough to say that it will grow on its own roots.
