Modern Roses 12 points "Mini Eden" to "MIMI Eden", in bold, with all the correct info about Meilland, etc. I am not sure if It's a typo but maybe "Mimi Eden" should be listed as the synonym? I am not sure if anything was updated in subsequent "Modern Roses". I don't understand this "Mimi" because it is just a miniaturized version of Eden, who is this Mimi?

Mimi is surely a typo. Meilland's website calls it: Rosier grimpant mini PIERRE DE RONSARD ® Meibigboni

Does anyone else find the name MEIbigboni hilarious? He's not fat, he's just big boned!

I got this rose this spring 2016. Yet it won't bloom. The leaves are flawless and the plant is as tall as I am. I have fertilized it yet no buds?
Any ideas anybody?

Maybe hold off water. It works for citrus trees.

Maybe try a high potash low nitrogen fertilizer?

Not sure but it's a theory: Mine went nuts both in height and number of blooms and my garden is one of those strange "very alkaline" soils. I think there is limestone mixed in. Hydrangeas always pink, etc etc. Maybe this rose wants alkaline?

did it repeat bloom for you? For me after the initial lenghty spring bloom which ended in July..It had scanty blooms. compared to 100's of blooms there were 3 or 4 blooms here and there. I am curious as the description states blooms in flushes, that has not been my experience

Hello Yes after the initial slow start Madame Anisette is doing great. Beautiful clusters of roses that bloom in flushes. It did take 2 years.

How much variation is possible based on root stock? There have been several "Site Guest Believes this is Incorrectly Identified!" lately.
I would like someone to post pictures of stems with thorns (old growth and new growth), leaflets, stipules, hips if any, sepals, flower anatomy, etc, and find out if the variation in the photos is due to environmental conditions, root stock, soil, or if it was purchased with an incorrect label.
For example, my Madame Anisette does the same thing as this rose- it is labelled as a 32" grower and mine grow well over 6 feet in height. My flowers and canes look like they are on steroids. It is definitely Madame Anisette because the fragrance is a giveaway! My Lion's Rose grows to 5'. My Sweet Victoria as well. All these grow as if on steroids in my garden.

I wouldn't give it a second thought. There can be tremendous variation in blooms based on a wide range of factors. The criteria the commenter gave for doubting the photo--color, number of petals, height--are very poor indicators of whether a variety is correctly identified or not.

Is there any indications that this could be Lindee?

Using a ruler to give the average size of “Lindee’s” blooms might help.
