Is this variety distinct from 'Summer Lodge'?

I am not sure. We have three roses.
2007 Summer Lodge ORAstricape shrub. Won medals. Very prickly.
2015 Poseidon ORAlodsen shrub
2016 Tropical Lightning ORAlodsem. Climber/shrub . We have it as cream, but the internet photos and references show striped.
I think these last two 'Poseidon' and 'Tropical Lightning' are the same, as Orard's website is showing a code of ORAlodsem for 'Poseidon'. I'll merge them tomorrow unless people think otherwise.

'Poseidon' and 'Tropical Lightning' now merged and we're back to your original question.
Looking at the Orard website, they quote the same colour for both. The only differences I can see are
'Summer Lodge' serie B. Hauteur 100/140cm
'Poseidon' serie A. Hauteur 100cm
So what is the series bit all about?

I don't know what the serie is about, perhaps an in house designation for growth habit. They both are climbers and look similar enough to be at least siblings. I don't know how HMF's original designation was cream when it's obviously striped, but thanks for the correction.

Thanks Daniel. We'll just have to keep 'Summer Lodge' and 'Poseidon' on the shelf until more information comes to light. We have a whole world of searchers out there, so perhaps one day.....
