Gosh! "A cold climate living fence"! I wonder if it would repel deer. Also, how cold?

I wonder if this may be 'Superba' -- see below. Also, should this not be merged with "Moser House Shed Rose"?

A poster at the gardenweb suggests that this rose might be the lost 'Anna Marie' by Peirce, bred by Pierce but attributed to Samuel Feast.

It looks similar to Baltimore Belle There also seems to be some confusion about Aennchen von Tharau and Eurydice, but those probably are the lesser candidates, considering APG is found in US?

What I grow as Aennchen von Tharau , supposedly an alba/Ayreshire hybrid, looks in foliage very like an alba, and nothing like APG.

Has anyone considered 'Jean Lafitte' as a possible identity for this rose? It was found in two locations in CA which are several hundred miles apart, so it likely is not a chance seedling.

What I can see from Jean Lafitte photos, it looks more like Tolstoi (aka similar to Constance Spry or mm Caroline Testout size-shape wise), just paler pink/peach. Also habit seems to be similar, large flexible canes, and then the rather short blooming laterals.
