I believe Rita Sammons should be classified as a polyantha, not a rambler, since it is a sport of Cécile Brunner.

The original 'Cécile Brunner's is not a rambler, so that would need to be changed to Polyantha. Great catch.
The climbing version is a sport. Not the original!
I too am curious of the differences between Rita and Cécile. Is Rita a darker pink on average?

I counted the buds in a large cluster on this interesting found rose. The count was over 50 buds. The leaves have up to 9 leaflets.

Hi, the May 2009 picture by Cass caught my attention. It shows some buds whose petals are somehow leaking sideway out of the sepals.
Last spring I was investigating a rose previously found in the edge of an abandonned orchard, blooming from Spring to november. Its buds very recurrently showed the same habit, both on original plant and cutting. Whether looking at pictures or at other shrubs in my garden, I only found this habit on damask roses, some gallicas, the 'bourbon' Rouge Marbrée, and Belle De Baltimore, which is said to be a Gallica hybrid.
I didn't find the time to pursue my researches, but the 1846, and also 1848 references about damask perpetual Belle De Trianon and Vibert's work from it had me wonder if some of the old noisette-looking found roses could belong to another class... I am joining some pictures of the rose I found.

Wow. Not much Golden in that Century. My blooms fade in mid-summer but never to white.

I suspect that is not really Golden Century. It is never that yellow, nor does it fade like that. 'Golden Century' displays a Chinese red reverse when opening, that fades to dark coral/peach. Plus, the bloom form is wrong. That looks more like 'Climbing Jackie' to me, or possibly 'Climbing Rise 'N' Shine'.

From the notes of Walter Schowalter, courtesy of Margit Schowalter:
Tetonkaha - Hybrid rugosa - Hansen
There seems to be half a dozen different forms of this rose in circulation. It seems Dr. Hansen was rather careless about keeping his stock unmixed. Mine was a four foot shrub with semi-double deep rose colored blossoms, produced in July. Very hardy.

Are any of the Tetonkaha roses still out there?

Years ago I sent both Joe Bergersen and the N.E. Hansen Memorial Garden located in South Dakota suckers of 'Yatkan' and 'Tetonkaha'. Whether they survived or not, I don't know. I believe both cultivars are still growing at the University of Alberta Botanic Garden, in Alberta, Canada.

Thank you! Returning to add that South Dakota State University still has Tetonkaha rose as well as Hansen, Alika, Mrs. Mina Lindell, Lilian Gibson, Pax Apollo, Emmadora, Yatkan, and Zitkala roses
