Difficult to say, there seems to have been several Dr. Hurtas in the Austtri-Hungarian Empire: Checking Google Books - Dr. Ignaz Hurta (1854) Doctor for Mines in Czernowitz; - Dr. Johann Hurta (1853), personal doctor of the Archbishop (Princeps Primas) of Hungary (Béla Bartakovics?) Did Geschwind know the former, or did he honour the latter, or someone else?

According to Roy Shepherd, 'Orangefield Rose' is hybrid between Rosa arvensis and an Alba cultivar.

According Istvan Wagner, the cultivar name is 'Fritz Schröder'. Which one is correct?

Both names exist in German, but adding a few more references indicates that 'Fritz Schrödter' is correct. He was a German opera singer.

Origin is unknown. Why? According to Sean Jennett, Sam McGredy (in References) "Grandfather bred it from the' Austrian Copper', and this is an interesting series to follow through."
