Many Thanks. This clears up some problems for me. about 12 years ago I imported Niles Cochet from a nursery in the USA to Europe. After a few years I couldn't tell the difference between this and Auguste Comte as much as I tried. In the mean time I've been trying to Identify "Bryan Freidel", a found rose from your southern states, it has a strong affinity to Maman Cochet but isn't the quite same, personally I find it a better rose. This now opens the possibility that the found rose is Niles Cochet

I grew 'Niles Cochet' from Tom Liggett who was associated with San Jose Heritage. Prickles were much the same as others in the Cochet group. As you know, there are many in the trade now going under assumed names. I'm glad you're taking the time to try to sort things out.

'Aunt Jane's Mystery' was named in error by me (great nephew of "Aunt Jane") in 1995. The rose is actually the Old Tea, 'Niles Cochet.' PC.
