Are the roses 'Aimable Amie', 'Belle Sans Flatterie' and 'Louis van Tyll' identical, as suggested by Lars-Ake Gustavsson in his book Rosor for nordiska tradgardar (only in Swedish)? From the photos on this site those roses look similar to me also.
This question arose when I tried to identify a Gallica that I received as a gift. I settled for Aimable Amie at the time.

'Aimable Amie' differs from 'Belle Sans Flatterie' in that it tends to reach five feet in height and has a strong fragrance, while 'Belle Sans Flatterie' reaches only about three feet and has only a light scent. (I know that doesn't answer your question about 'Louis van Tyll', which also has a strong scent.)

Thanks. I may have to change my opinion then, since my roses are forming a 15 meters long hedge now, and they are certainly less than a meter high. They are scented, but I'm not sure I would call it a strong fragrance. I'll try and decide this summer.
