I did not see this in any HMF reference, but in his essay “Nom de Plume”, David Carpenter claims that ‘Therese Bugnet’ is named for a favorite sister and grandchild.

My OP seedlings of Thérèse Bugnet are long-legged and high-heeled as well!
Most of them look very Rugosa-like.

Planted this by a Colorado Blue Spruce, and Therese Bugnet has "climbed" through the spruce, with canes probably 12-14' tall. Puts on a spectacular spring flush, but there's always a few flowers through the summer. The flowers collapse quickly in summer heat, probably lasting no longer than a day or two. Very healthy, good color through the year.

Rosa Rugosa Hybrids x Miniatures
Lyndon Lyon
A number of years ago, I had a large plant of 'Thérèse Bugnet' (R. acicularis x R. rugosa kamtchatica) x (R. amblyotis x R. rugosa plena) x 'Betty Bland', also 'George Will' (R. rugosa x R. acicularis) x garden roses, and 'Will Alderman' (R. rugosa x R. acicularis) x a Hybrid Tea, all in a group. 'Thérèse Bugnet' set abundant hips that year and I planted the seed that fall and grew the seedling under fluorescent lights. One seedling and one only blossomed when about 6 weeks old. The flower was semi-double pink, very fragrant, and had plenty of pollen. The plant was upright growing with red stems, thorny at the base and thornless near the top. I started more plants from cuttings as fast as possible and in the spring set then out in a row.
...
Pollen from the 'Thérèse Bugnet' quick-blooming seedling, which we call 'Pink Seedling', was used on the diploid miniature and polyantha-like roses that we were working with. We were plagued with poor fertility and poor seed germination and it hasn't been until now that we appear to have obtained the breaks we need. A very hardy 'Pink Seedling' derivative crossed on 'Merry Christmas' and 'Red Can Can' has given us several fertile red flowered seedlings. These and 'Merry Christmas' and 'Red Can Can' are again being crossed with pollen from several quick blooming seedlings of 'Pink Seedling' with improved fertility.
