From the 'Rosen-Zeitung' 1900, page 51:
"Einige schöne Rosen für das freie Land.
... 3) Souv. de Thérèse Levet, Th. (Levet 83). Hochrot, eine der dunkelsten Theerosen, sehr duftend und sehr gefüllt. Sie hat den grossen Vorzug, dass sich die Blüte in der Farbe und Form sowohl am Strauch als auch abgeschnitten, so lange unverändert und frisch erhält, wie ich es bei keiner andern Rose beobachtet habe. Sie bedarf aber starken Winterschutzes und ist nicht sehr reichblühend; auch öffnen sich die Blüten bei regnerischem Wetter nicht leicht."
My translation:
Some Beautiful Roses for Open Ground.
... 3) Souv. de Thérèse Levet, Tea (Levet 83). Bright red, one of the darkest Tea Roses, very fragrant and very full. It has the great advantage of the flower, either on the bush or cut, remaining unchanged and fresh for so long, such as I have observed with no other rose. However, it requires heavy winter protection and is not very free-flowering; also the blooms don't open easily in rainy weather.

I am not sure if there is a listing for this rose or if the original Red Hansen/Hanson's Hedge is correct. I first saw the name in the book: http://www.extension.umn.edu/garden/yard-garden/flowers/roses-for-the-north/ North Dakota extension has photos of the rose, plus complete description, however, it is not a red but a light pink rose hardy to zone 2: https://www.ag.ndsu.edu/trees/handbook/th-3-43.pdf

I am not familiar with a "Hansen's Red Hedge" but grow a "Hansen's Hedge Rose". It is the one shown in the link you posted... https://www.ag.ndsu.edu/trees/handbook/th-3-43.pdf I believe it was introduced by SDSU as windbreak material. Whether it was "developed" by selection from open pollinated seeds or by cross breeding I am uncertain. I'll try to find out.

Margit, Thanks for looking into it. The reason I posted it here, is that there is no listing for Hanson/Hansen Hedge rose on HMF. And this is the only rose listed "Hedge" rose, that was hardy to zone 2.
I think HMF needs to open a listing for Hansen/Hanson hedge rose.
It is possible that this is the Red Hanson/Hansen hedge rose: http://morrisonswcd.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Rose-Hanson-Hedge.pdf

What about if we add to the 'Hansen's Red Hedge' file: synonyms of Hansen Hedge Rose Hansen's Hedge Rose Hanson Hedge Rose
That way all the valuable information in your comments are in one place and with time, details of this / these roses may come clear.

Thanks Patricia.
This helps to have the regrouped. Until more info about them could be found.
Also shouldn't it read instead of : Medium red Shrub.
Medium pink/ red shrub?

Medium red shrub Is what the Americican Rose Society say for 'Hansen's Red Hedge'. Down further on the page under bloom, HelpMeFind shows red or pink.

For some reason, I have to cut my post into several smaller ones: The photos on this site, look like a generic Hansa colored Rugosa: http://morrisonswcd.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Rose-Hanson-Hedge.pdf

this nursery says:
http://lincolnoakes.com/stock/pc/viewPrd.asp?idproduct=389 Thought originally to be an SDSU selection of Rosa rugosa x R.woodsii. Which SDSU, I assume being South Dakota State University.
