I know this is one of those "how long is a piece of string?" questions

several years ago. There are thousands of roses so I know the chances
are slight. The buds are small and yellow at the base, whiter at the
tips, opening to rather blowsy but fairly small white flowers. It
flowers on and on and on.

Rosa banksiae alba?

No, we have that one on a corner of the house wall. It flowered better
this year than it has for ages, while R.b. lutea and lutescens
performed badly. The R. bracteata also did really well - temepramental
things, plants!
