Why do the photos from the USA look like a completely different rose than the photos from Europe? Color, petal count, flower form, and flower size look different.

There was definitely a mix-up at some point. I first saw this rose in France, and it was completely different than the rose I later bought back here in the US. My plant came from Burlington Roses, and Burling told me it came from Ludwig's (back when Ludwig's daughter was in partnership with a rose grower in Arizona). After the partnership ended, they offered Burling some cuttings, and one of the roses was this Purple Lodge rose.

I suspect this found rose might be Vibert's "Anaïs Ségalas". What do you all think?
