supposed to be Alba Foliacea mnnn looks different from the San Jose Rose and also from The Redoute drawing and the same rose presented on Rogers roses is Double.

One I'd never notice or seen before spinossisman myricantha
Another rose that there is sometimes contention over is the Bishop

side view

Another rose of contention is Mac Gregors Damask and Portland from Glendora Brooklyn had 2 Portlands from Glendora and 1 Mac Gregors Damask. The Mac Gregors Damask always stayed under 6 ft while one Of The Portlands from Glendora was at least 7 ft tall and about 5 wide though the blooms are dead on similar.

These are absolutely gorgeous pictures of beautiful and unusual roses. Canary Island is to die for. I've grown Damask from Glendora and it and Gregor's Damask look identical, but Glendora certainly can grow taller than six feet. Thanks for these wonderful photos.
