This bud have the same color than the Loubert pictures https://www.pepiniere-rosesloubert.com/catalogue,3/mme-lemesle,994129.html , but the open flower is of a much brighter red ! Are these recent ? I was surprised that I mentionned an old rose and you just have it in your garden, so by any chance do you have that rose called Etendard de Jeanne d'Arc ? I've read on the forum it could be the same as Thomasville Lamarque.

There is not a lot of pictures about this rose but this is one I would have liked to see grow. The one I purchased was actually offered because it was in fragile shape. It seems to be dead now. I will directly ask the members who posted photos of that rose, thanks !

Hello Karin,
I sent you a private message earlier this year concerning a rose that I would like to identify. I know you do research on Alba's so your opinion might be useful ! The rose I suspect to be an alba was planted a long time ago in my great-grandparents'garden. They are deceased and no one can give me any information about this rose, except that my great grandfather grew it from a cutting. It is slender, about 1.6 meter I think, and it's simple blooms were synchronized with my Alba Suaveolens last year. It has some scent, but lighter than Suaveolens. Here are some pictures, Thank you, best regards, Thomas.

Oh thank you Karin for your Laxa suggestion ! Maybe it's time for me to educate about species roses. In a way, the answer was just under my feet. I thought this rose really looked like an alba, with its buds especially, hips, stamens, thin, slightly bending downards prickles... I will read more about Laxa rootstock, the pictures I saw showed arching but also less leggy bushes, with more ample foliage. Do you think the Gudhem rose may also be a Laxa, or that a simple flower alba could actually exist ? Thank you for your help, best regards, Thomas.
