I received what looks like this rose in 1993 as r. foliolosa x r. rugosa. this indicated Vilmorins rose but that has a reference as remontant which my plant isn't. is 'Ann Endt' remontant?

In my garden (zone 9b, Mediterranean climate), 'Ann Endt' is convincingly recurrent. There's a reference saying that Vilmorin's rose was light yellowish-pink, so 'Ann Endt' is a different rose: glowing magenta/cherry.

Ann Endt is remontant. Very curious to know more about your plant Becky.

It is just like 'Ann Endt' in colour and prickles but it is not repeat flowering. It came from a nursery in south Devon which no longer exists. I am adding a photo under the R.foliolosa x Rosa rugosa description.

Thanks for that. Nancy Steen brought 'Ann Endt' back from Europe and I always wondered if Ann Endt was not in fact Vilmorin's R.foliolosa x Rosa rugosa...

Hi Jocelen, Has evidence arisen to counter Ken Nobbs in the 1978 reference?

Rose was discovered by Mrs Joanna Millar rather than bred by her.

Hi Becky, I made the change. Do you have an approximate date of discovery please ? How old is this Lady ?

Hi Etienne
We are not sure when she found it, it was possibly in the 70's or 80's, we will ask her. She is in her 80's and has a fantastic garden in the hills behind Cagnes-sur-Mer. Charles Q-R has taken a group to visit and he is quite smitten with the garden and her, I believe. She is a delight. She is friends with the Hanbury family which is how she came to know the garden there.
It was really lovely to see you both on Sunday, thank you for coming and thank you very much pour les cadeaux!
Becky
