Coup de Foudre means Stroke of Lightning in French, idiomatically it can mean a way one falls in love.

DESCRIPTION
Botanical/commercial classification: Rosa hybrida/Grandiflora Rose Plant.
Varietal denomination: cv. Meizambaizt.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new variety of Rosa hybrida Grandiflora rose plant was created in France by artificial pollination wherein two parents were crossed which previously had been studied in the hope that they would contribute the desired characteristics. The female parent (i.e., the seed parent) was the product of the cross of the ‘Macivy’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,362) and an unnamed and unreleased seedling (non-patented in the United States). The male parent (i.e., pollen parent) was the ‘Wekamanda’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,591).
The parentage of the new variety can be summarized as follows:
(‘Macivy’×Unnamed Seedling)בWekamanda’.

Alain Meilland has stated to me that the seed parent is the Bailey's rose Centennial.

Sorry Zach, i don't understand. At the moment we have
Seed: Singin’ in the Rain (syn Spek’s Centennial, MACivy 1994) x seedling
Where does Bailley's rose Centennial come into it.

Centennial is Singin in the Rain x (Seedling). It is a 100% sister to Yellow Submarine.

That seedling parent of Centennial is one of Will Radler's that he shared with Ping to breed with.

More Knock Out replicants? :/

It has a bit better powdery mildew resistance then Knockout does in drier climates but it has lost some of Knockouts blackspot resistance to a few of the races. With it being a seedling of Knockout I figure that all of the horizontal resistance that Knockout has was thinned out, and that's why most of Knockout babies crossed with non blackspot resistant cultivars aren't as good as Knockout or Double Knockout itself.

Likely, although DKO has one less resistance than KO itself. With that said, I'd still grow DKO over KO any day, since it is more aesthetic.
