We have this very vigorous climber (bought as a bush rose) which sulked until we gave it a climbing support and then took off. It flowers freely for most of the year and is very hardy.

Here are some photos:

To start this off, IMO I think it is has "Tea" in it, not Hybrid Tea.

Interesting. It has no perfume at all and very few thorns. The thorns appear in pairs and are hooked backward.

Must agree with David, it looks like a Tea

Anyway, I'm game 'Comtesse de' Labarthe' needing a drink in warm weather when the blooms open right up.

I think it is to big Bruce for the "Comtesse", we might have to wait till Balinbear or others more familiar with "Teas".
If we are deadset on the possibility of it being a "Tea" why do we not contact the ladies themselves

Not to big for a climbing Comtesse but it always has an unmistakable "citrus" perfume though if it has been dry it may not be as strong. Flowers look like them and the lack of thorns would describe it well..

Not a Mamon Cochet if it does not have a lot of thorns. Our climber is pretty well armed.

Can you let us know where you purchased it?
