Patricia, may I ask if this is the same rose that came to you as "Vestey's Pink Tea" that you made comment on in the 'Anne Leygues' file?

Thank you, Patricia. It's good to know that someone is still growing a documented specimen of the "Vestey's Pink" version of 'General Schablikine'.
I was looking closely at your photo and the branch structure and relative lack of thorniness corresponds to my "Vestey's Pink".

A pleasure. Keeping the provenance and date of aquisition is a!ways recommended, as is showing these details in photo captions. it can solve many identity problems.
