An identical rose (Surbrunnsgatan) has been found in Biburg/Waging Bavaria in 2003 by Marita Protte.

No, I bought Surbrunnsgatan from Martin Weingart in 2002. In 2003 I took cuttings from that unknown Hybrid Perpetual I've found in Biburg. The owner, a 74 year old woman told me that the rose always has been called "Hofrose" = "farmrose". It was already in the garden when she moved to the farm after her marriage, 50 years ago. The first time my cuttings bloomed I was very surprised. They remembered me of Surbrunnsgatan. To become sure, I planted my "Biburger" rose next to "Surbrunnsgatan". Since 2006 I'm watching these roses and I cant find any difference between them.

Thanks! It resembles Yolande d'Aragon and a found rose sold by Vintage Gardens known as "Katie's McNear HP," similar to Yolande d'Aragon but somewhat smaller plant.

I don't see the very leafy sepals of 'Yolande d'Aragon" in Marita's photos of "Surbrunnsgatan". Marita, do you have photos of the bush?

No, but a photo of the bud.
