All of the references you mentioned merely repeated the error that went on for decades. Remember, Peter Beales also insisted that his ''Irene Watts' was definitely not 'Pink Gruss an Aachen', and actually listed both at his nursery. If you ordered one of each, you'd get two of the same plant.
And all of those references were written before the true 'Bloomfield Abundance' was rediscovered. Of course the true one looks like a pink Hybrid Tea -- the true one is akin to 'Belinda's Dream' in being a cross between a Wichurana and a Hybrid Tea. And genetic testing confirmed that the imposter is virtually identical to 'Mlle Cecile Brunner'.
I realize these photos were posted a few years ago, but I felt the need to make a point for clarity.

A great picture showing the mutation's partial reversion back to Iceberg.
The rose has some controversy behind the discoverer - Edgar Swane or Lilia Weatherly. It was exhibited by Swane's Nurseries in the 2005 Australian National Rose Trial where it won a gold medal as best in the trial. Swane listed the discoverer as Weatherly.

I dont know if Maja di Reggi is a synonym for Candy Stripe. Is this the same rose? It definitely looks different.
