According to Google-translated info on the website of the Chinese Plant Varieties Protection Information Network (http://www.cnpvp.com/show.asp?ClassCode=0016&n_id=860), the parentage of this rose is: Westerland x (hybrid of Bonanza and Robusta). Maybe someone proficient in Chinese can decipher more.

Mother plant is hybird Westerland and Lichtkönigin Lucia (Korlilub) and father is Bonanza x unknown hybird. Does that help?

The Chinese patent specifically says [Westerland x (Bonanza x Robusta)]. The universal name implies this as KORwesrug, which implies Kordes' Westerland x Rugelda. The latter is likely Bonanza x Robusta. At any rate, I do not see any reason why the Chinese patent is wrong, especially since it is right on other hybrids listed within the patent source.
I think that the confusion with Queen Lucia of Light from the anon. poster may be because Pink Robusta is likely bred out of Robusta and Queen Lucia of Light.

confused by multiple names. I had an Aloha and want to get another for where I live now. My Aloha was planted in about 1996. It was I would say ballet-slipper pink. Consistent color, many blooms: all season medium sized, maybe 3-4", some long-stemmed but also clusters with multi-stages in bloom. A distinguishing quality: the everready bunny for holding color and form, both in vase and then dried --even without being treated would hold color, form, scent. Well shaped bush, maybe 5 or 6 feet tall.--maybe lots of thorns. Freeze tolerant, no protection in zone7b. I thought a grandiflora; could have been a small climber or hybred tea on steroids. Unsprayed, foliage extremely healthy, little blackspot, no mildew. Smallish leaves neutral green.

It sounds like you had Aloha (Cl HT, Boerner, 1948).

Westerland is probably the rose that you are looking for. It is tough and sweet!
