‘SALMON ANGE’ (without accent in the letter "O")

Commercially available.
Orange Pink Hybrid Tea.
Discovered by unknown.

Hybrid Tea.
Orange-pink. Clear rich salmon. Salmon pink. Moderate fragrance. Very double (35 petals). Free flowering and with good stems. Blooms in flushes throughout the season. Ovoid buds with darker undertones.

Bushy, upright. Matte, dark green, leathery foliage.
Can be used for cut flower.

Possibly sport of ‘Bel Ange’ (Louis Lens, Belgium, 1962), discovered in the production fields of “Los Alamos de Rosauer” Nursery in the 60s (need confirmation). It also need to be confirmed whether 'Salmon Ange' is the same than ‘Colin’s Salmon’ (Ronald J. Bell, Australia, before 1970) and ‘Angel Girl’ (Melvin E. Wyant, United States, 1973), both sports of the same rose discovered in the 70s in Australia and in the United States, respectively.
'Salmon Ange' is widely sold in Argentina, Uruguay and Chile. One of the “must” pink roses in any rose collection.

Mariano, you should REASSIGN your photo to the ‘Salmon Ange’ page. There currently are no photos at all.
I have added a Los Alamos de Rosauer nursery reference which does include an accent, but there is no mention of the ‘Salmon Ange’ history at all.
Perhaps your largest library may have a collection of old nursery catalogues that you could photocopy and use for future research?
Wyatt’s ‘Angel Girl’ did get to South Africa. At the very least, you have put your thoughts on ‘Salmon Ange’ in the right place in case anything turns up in the future.

Dear Patricia, thank you so much for your reply. Unfortunately, it is almost impossible to get any old nurseries's catalogues in any library in Argentina. Anyway, I could manage to get quite a good number (+200) of old rose catalogues and I have one of the biggest -if not the biggest- collection of garden and rose catalogues distributed during the the late XIX and early XX century in Argentina.

I still have to check it out the exact moment when 'Salmon Ange' start appearing in those catalogues and ask "Los Alamos de Rosauer "to see whether they can confirm me if this sport appeared somehow in their production fields, as I suspect/ assume.

Stay well and kind regards :)
