It looks a lot like Anna-Maria de Montravel which I just saw today at Elizabeth Park, CT. I have lindee blooming at home I'll compare them side by side when I'm home.

Elizabeth park is amazing. I was there decades ago and I still remember their amazing climbing rose arches. It was like being in heaven. Chicago Botanical Garden doesn't have climbing roses arch like that, we are too cold in zone 5.

Our local garden in Syracuse has arches as well, and although it's listed as zone 5 I feel like they are in a 6 microclimate being close to Syracuse University, etc. What is growing on our arches is: William Baffin, New Dawn, Veilchenblau, Alchemist, Sombreuil, Zephyrine Drouhin, and Salita among others.

Thanks for the info. Chicago Botanical Garden does have New Dawn up against a brick-wall. I have Zeph. Drouhin, it's very tall and canes are flexible & thornless, but it gives spring flush only, and few blooms afterwards. James Galway (own-root) is a climber for me, now it's at least 15 feet tall against my house. It's -20 below zero in winter here, but our strong wind often makes the windchill factor to be -30.

Has there been any conclusion as to whether "Lindee" is the same as "Footlights", "Flushing Creek Poly" and 'Flocon de Neige'?

And also Paquerette?
I have Lindee and when I saw photos of the small plant Paquerette I couldn't see any difference.

That is an interesting observation bumblekim. I have a foundling said to be similar to "Lindee" and I have considered 'Pacquerette'. You might like to read the reference for "Beryl Turner's Tiny White" and note the photos. Would you say your "Lindee" is the same as "Beryl Turner's Tiny White"? As always, close-up photos of the characteristics of "Lindee" would be good.

This is a fantastic rose, plant this it deserves garden space!!! It has a moderate fragrance to the nose, but it wafts for 4-5 feet, so it seems that it has a much stronger fragrance.
It is always in bloom. even though the blooms get a bit brown on the edges in very rainy weather, there are more to take their place. I planted a transplant from Cliff Orent's garden in the late summer of 2011, and it set new leaves and blooms that fall; and it is now filled out and 2x3 feet.
Look at Melva's and Cass's photos of the shrub to see the size of the blooms. I hope I'll get the knack of striking cuttings, this plant is worth having more of.
