The pages on the nursery, Thomas for Roses, note that Marie Lambert and Marie Pavie are swapped in the nursery garden. I want to order Marie Pavie. Does Glenys know these two are mislabelled and which is which? Or should I just order Marie Lambert to get Marie Pavie?

Yes, order Marie Lambert. We find that nurseries tend to reply when informed of errors, "That was what it was sold to us as." Usually more grammatically than that, but I'm writing late at night.
if you get Marie Lambert let me know, and I'll replace it!

As per the Thomas For Roses nursery:
"Yes I was aware that they were originally mixed but that problem was sorted some years ago and if you order Marie Pavie you will get Marie Pavie not Snowdrop Regard Glenys"

OK, I'll take the comment off the listing. With apologies.

This exchange has introduced me to Marie Lambert, for which much thanks, people. I will now be ordering both roses.

Just be aware that Thomas don't have 'Marie Lambert' listed under that name. They have it as "Snow Flake". If you ask for Marie Lambert there may be some confusion.
They also have 'G. Nabonnand' listed as "Jean Ducher", and 'Monsier Tillier' listed as "Archiduc Joseph", and 'Marquise de Vivens' listed as "Mrs. Good's Special Tea" (not in their catalogue, but available).
