There are several roses grown and sold as Cécile Brunner. Some get tall and don't repeat reliably and may be called climbing or spray Cécile Brunner. I haven't experienced those yet. My little plant is the bush form, rarely getting more than two and a half feet tall. It produces rather large sprays loaded with petite, well formed, pointed buds that open into pale pink little pom poms. Often, the sprays make up the majority of the little plant. This is the rose that taught me what wirey meant. The narrow stems which twist about remind me of floral wire bent into shape.
This particular plant was obtained by rooting a cutting found in a bouquet so it's on its own roots.
