It is definitely Ghislaine de Féligonde. I was kindly given this rose by a very experienced and knowledgeable rosarian who is also on this forum is you wish to ask about its provenance. Thank you.

Have you seen how different your rose is to all the other photographs?

It looks identical to the one in Baden-Baden, Germany (Janine Arlette on the first page) , DWalter in Hamburg, Germany, (top right of page 6) and Marinas in Amelia, Virginia (top left of 4th page). Several others have pink. Mine gets a washed out yellow in warmer weather, with almost no pink.....Many of my roses have wild color variations depending on how labile the temperature and humidity is.....

Is it the same plant as in this photo (http://www.helpmefind.com/rose/l.php?l=21.299301), high above the rose-arch?
On that photo, I would swear it is Ghislaine. But on the "doubted" photo, it indeed looks quite different.

These flowers are too large and produced in too smaller clusters and not yellow enough to be 'Ghislaine de Féligonde'. Beautiful though it is. It could almost be 'New Dawn'.

Actually when you go through the many photos, you could wonder if there are two roses using this name in Europe. See photos by DWalter and Uliginosa; but theirs are at least cluster-flowered.
And I still can't delete comments, despite signing out and signing in again.

Yes Margaret they do vary quite a bit. Although in warm weather the flowers will have a slightly peachy hue turning white very quickly rather than the usual lemon and yellow shades in cooler weather.
