This rose is very healthy for me, no blackspot or powdery mildew in 8b PNW Oregon. It makes nice blooms for cutting on strong, straight stems. Quick to repeat and even now trying to bloom at the end of December.

I agree too with MalinH. See the two photos I just posted: - Mme AC has not very densely packed blooms, with petals which are more elongated - The buds are ovoid pointed, not rounded

Thank you. I think I am seeing the difference, especially in the buds.

I tend to agree on this. The photo John took earlier is the real-one. You might compare Yourselves Nastarana. Rose photo courtesy of Johno Anglesey Abbey Gardens, UK, 23/6/23. Uploaded 22 JUL 23 www.helpmefind.com/rose/l.php?l=21.413376

It would be interesting to know whether the rose photographed repeat-flowers, which Johno isn't in a position to tell us.

Great minds Margaret!
The buds look like my 'White Pet', which of course, is a sport of Félicité et Perpétue.

I am happy to remove the offending photos. The label was nailed to the post so I would assume the garden was sold an incorrect plant to begin with. I have to admit, I am finding it hard to identify the difference.

It's easy if you've grown MME. Alfred. She's quite different.

Hi Johno Photo wasn't experienced as offending by me. Maybe someone mixed up the labels. And I agree with Robert Neil Rippetoe: Once growing this rose, You'll never confuse another rose for it.
