Could you help me with the ID of this hot pink noisette, maybe china?
People have recommended I post this on this forum instead (It was in the Name that rose forum). I had posted a link to it in here before so I hope I'm not being obnoxious posting this now.
I just copied the whole thing but will add some new pics in the comments. If you have any questions, please ask.
In case you want to read the comments made there, here's a link. Some popular guesses were Fellemberg and Old Blush, but the foliage is different of both, much more elongated. Comtessedelacouche thinks it could be some sport, seedling, or variation of OB. I see how that could play since some pics of the blooms and hips look identical on hmf.

Hi, all! This grows in a local park, kinda big, 3 meters tall, maybe. It gets shade in the afternoons. I have no idea of how old it could be.
If I recall correctly, it is scented, but lightly, not like anything in particular that I could tell.
Hope you can appreciate the bristles, there, by the left of the pic, also on the next one.
Buds, notice the very elongated leaves, too.
I was pretty amused by the foliage, actually, had it not been for the flowers I would've thought it was a very bushy peach from a distance.
Makes hips VERY easily, had a lot of them, they're orange. You can see another one getting kinda wrinkly by the background, it is a darker shade of orange, but orange nonetheless.
A less ripe one, sorry that it is out of focus, I tried really hard to get a good pic but my camera wasn't having it. The shape is pretty unusual i think, they're like teeny kiwifruits, so you get the idea.
Another bloom pic, they have a pretty romantic feel to them. Also check the fine, uniform veining, it seems to come on with age. Around the flowers the canes are mostly smooth, farther away quite bristly, but not exaggeratedly so. they seemed uniform in shape.
Hope you can help and thanks for taking a look!

That is an actual peach by the upper-left corner, you can compare the leaves there.

I think you can see what I mean by "teeny kiwifruits" here.
Here's a whole bush view, this one is more sprawling, the ones by the red pipes are taller and less wider. In total there are about 8 bushes in the park, and I've seen the ones by the red pipes sucker. Hope that helps! Thanks again!

Tea, China, Noisette, et al. Experiences and Recommendations
Comments (21)Baronne Prevost could probably be trained on a pillar but it is fiercely prickly - the big, pointed kinds - I would not want to be the one to tie it up! We have Mme Joseph Schwarz growing in almost total shade in the Sacramento cemetery where it stays clean and blooms. I'm pretty sure it's a sport of Duchesse de Brabant since it sometimes throws pink flowers, but it performs much better. DdB gets mildew here, too, although our summer heat discourages it so the mildew is spring and fall. I heard a European speaker (don't remember who) extoll Mme Joseph Schwatz's virtues as a much superior plant to DdB, and that's been my experience too. Some teas are big. Some are huge. Mrs. Dudley Cross is in that category. Mme Antoine Mari is the closest to a moderate-sized tea that I've encountered but even that is building in our garden.

Comments (16)What fun to be able to design and plant so many old roses that thrive in the heat of the Southeast! I live in hot and humid eastern NC. We are probably hotter than you are. The teas I really like are Mrs. B. R. Cant and Barronne Henriette de Snoy. Mrs BR gets huge: mine has spread to 10 feet in three years, 4' tall. She gets no black spot and blooms constantly. I had always heard not to prune a tea hard as it will not bloom well. Baronne HdS is about 6" x 4' high and has exquisite blooms of porcelain peach. She gets small bs occassionally but I do not spray and she does fine. Mrs. Dudley Cross has remained small and blomm is pretty but sparce. Flushes twice a year. General Galleni gets no bs and keeps an odd shaped red blend bloom or two---never covered. My son has Mutabulis, a China, in Charlotte. He rarely fertilizes and does not prune. Only in the coldest part of winter have I seen this bush without bloom. It is usually covered. Also has gotten very large---8 x8'. Hope this helps. I love the teas for their beautiful flowers and toughness! I have ordered Mme Berkley from Roses Unlimited for next spring. They have an excellent selection of OGR and plants are always large and healthy. Enjoy! Enjoy!...See MoreHelp with id hot pink rose
Comments (6)You could also look at 'Perfume Delight'. It is a slightly brighter, clearer pink. The leaves are very large, leathery, and abundant, with matte texture. IIRC, flower necks tend to be shorter than PP's. PD has tidier hybrid tea form, but fewer petals usually than PP. The confused form in the first picture is more like PP. Both are very vigorous, productive, and fragrant. http://www.helpmefind.com/gardening/l.php?l=2.4749...See MoreHelp me ID a rose pink childhood favourite
Comments (13)Any other suggestions? I really need this rose in my life again. :) I contacted two major rose nurseries, and both kindly replied. One suggested Zephirine Drouhin, but I'm positive my childhood rose wasn't a climber. The other suggested Romanze, which based on photographs looks more like my rose. Except that Romanze has a hint of salmon in some photos, while my rose was always a clean, clear pink. Does anyone here grow Romanze?...See More
