Would this be the same rose Heirloom is selling as 'Red Blush', also bred by Seivers and also 'Maiden's Blush' X Hamburger Phoenix'?
I just bought and planted two 'Red Blush' from Heirloom. I would like to be sure I know what I have.

Doesn't seem so.
Just looking on Rolf's old website (via the waybackmachine...it takes snapshots of websites for archival) and they are listed separately.

A new Alba hybrid with a red kordesii rose, raised by Sievers in Germany and introduced in 1988. It has strong-growing, arching stems to 5 ft (1.5 m). The flowers are bright red, fully double, and almost Gallica-like, produced only in early summer with a strong sweet scent. Hardy to -30°F (-34° C), Zone 4.
