'Louis van Tilt' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Are the roses 'Aimable Amie', 'Belle Sans Flatterie' and 'Louis van Tyll' identical, as suggested by Lars-Ake Gustavsson in his book Rosor for nordiska tradgardar (only in Swedish)? From the photos on this site those roses look similar to me also.
This question arose when I tried to identify a Gallica that I received as a gift. I settled for Aimable Amie at the time.

'Aimable Amie' differs from 'Belle Sans Flatterie' in that it tends to reach five feet in height and has a strong fragrance, while 'Belle Sans Flatterie' reaches only about three feet and has only a light scent. (I know that doesn't answer your question about 'Louis van Tyll', which also has a strong scent.)

Thanks. I may have to change my opinion then, since my roses are forming a 15 meters long hedge now, and they are certainly less than a meter high. They are scented, but I'm not sure I would call it a strong fragrance. I'll try and decide this summer.
