'Bella Nitida' rose Reviews & Comments

Does anyone know the parentage of 'Bella Nitida'? Or have any way to ask the breeder? It looks very similar to 'Métis', even though they were introduced 33 years apart.

Even the foliage looks identical to 'Metis'. I was lucky enough to get several seedlings from 'Metis' that look quite similar. Maybe it is a 'Metis' seedling.

"E.R." [presumably Eduard Regel] discussing the forms of Rosa rugosa in Gartenflora 30: 198 (1881) wrote:
"Form 5. nitens endlich hat dicht bestachelte kahle Zweige und schmälere länglich-elliptische, oberhalb etwas glänzende Blatter (R. kamtschatica β. nitens Lindl. Bot. reg. tab. 824), ist aber nicht mit der nahe stehenden R. nitida Willd. aus Nordamerika zu verwechseln, die sich durch lanzettliche spitze, oberhalb stark glänzende Blätter unterscheidet, vielleicht aber nur die Form Nordamerika's von R. rugosa ist."

[Form 5. nitens, finally, has densely populated bald twigs and narrow oblong elliptical leaves (R. kamtschatica, β. nitens Lindl. Bot. Reg., Tab., 824), but is not associated with R. nitida Willd. from North America, which is distinguished by lanceolate leaves, which are strongly glossy above, but is perhaps only the North American form of R. rugosa.]
