All the same rose?
Comments (5)Jill, Your pictures certainly seem to show the same rose. I did wonder when i saw SU14 that it might be Francis Leake, which to me seems to look the same as MDC. However, to complicate matters, to me FL and MDC do not look like White Maman Cochet. Perhaps I am not looking at the MDC that you are thinking of. Aren't there several?

Comments (23)Thanks everybody for your input. I went ahead and ordered NILES COCHET along with two other Teas and a Bourbon. He is simply too handsome not to give him a try. The fragrance really doesn't have to be strong. It just has to be present. For example, BELINDA'S DREAM has a light fruity fragrance (almost like Celestial Seasons raspberry tea, but milder). Nothing to rave about but it is persistent and detectable under most conditions. That combined with gorgeous flowers, unbeatable repeat, and superb disease resistance makes her a keeper in mom's garden (I also planted a Belinda's Dream in my MIL's garden, but don't tell my mom). If Niles Cochet's blossoms live up to the images AND he has some fragrance AND his foliage is resistant to black spot in coastal Virginia, then he will be worth the effort/expense. I think I need to give my card a rest. Here is what I've ordered just within the last week or so: Clementina Carbonieri Climbing Radiance Climbing White Maman Cochet (2) Deuil du Dr. Reynaud (pour moi, j'adore Bourbons!) Niles Cochet Rock Hill Peach Tea Souvenir de Francis Gaulain Of course I still need 2 more shrub roses, 1 Floribunda, 1 Tea, 2 climbing Teas, 1 vintage Hybrid Tea, and a David Austin.

Comments (11)Thanks Ingrid! IâÂÂve been pretty sure it wasnâÂÂt MvH, but wanted to wait out its fall blooms to see if I might be wrong. If you donâÂÂt think it looks like Maman Cochet, then I might have two mislabeled rosesâ¦my MvH & MC (each from a different source) look very much alike. They are beautiful roses, but I had planned for a rose with some yellow tones where MvH is planted...best laid plans, right As for Bowser, we found him in our pasture back in July of 2011. He was down to only skin & bones and completely covered with massive sized ticks. He may have been abandoned, but he could have been displaced from the tornadoes that left so much damage surrounding us late April of that year. We were unable to find his true owners, so heâÂÂs still living with us. HeâÂÂs put on around 30 lbs since we found him and is probably the best dog everâ¦but donâÂÂt tell my other pups I said that :)...See MoreID Tea Rose (Maman Cochet Rouge???)
Comments (15)Hi Jeri and THANKS for your answer. As far as I understand english, I imagine you suggested me not to be so hasty in identifying a rose. The fact is that when Cass published her very illustrative picture, the ´Niles Cochet´ rose looked exactly the same than the rose my grandfather grows. Of course it could be a bit daring of me confirming the identification, but I had been taking actions such as reading many times the HMF website concerning ´Niles Cochet´rose, the ´Vintage Gardens´ site where a great amount of roses are published, as well as my grandfather´s valuable tales, bases in more than 60 years growing roses. Anyway, I am new in this forum and do not take part of it very often, so it could have been a mistake from me. In that case, sorry for it! Once more THANKS for your help and keep in touch! Mariano. ps.: THANKS for the story of ´Sarah Moon´, I have already read it yesterday night while looking for ´Sarah Moon´rose in HMF....See Moreingrid_vc so. CA zone 9
