Did you get this rose from Ashdown Roses? This is the found rose "The Portland From Glendora".

Mother plant was owned by Tom Liggett.
He also had "Portland From Glendora".
At that time, his catalog listed them separately as distinct variety.
Tom retired, and sold his collection to Ashdown Rose just before Ashdown started rose business.
Clearly, Ashdown was selling both Amanda Patenotte & The Portland From Glendora.
I have the Portland From Glendora too which was sold by Tom Liggett.
It is more deep purple shading, like a Rembrandt. Repeats good, but not so frequently.
I strongly recommend to see Mike Lowe's collection. Thanks

I have Amanda Patenotte from Mike Lowe via Ashdown roses. Mike Lowe's motherplant was received as the found rose "McGregor's Damask", which was a found rose from the Huntington....the same rose that is "The Portland From Glendora".
I have Mike Lowe's Amanda planted side by side with Glendora in my garden. They are one single cultivar.

There is one question.
Is your Glendora real Glendora which was found by Fred Boutin?
As wrote previously, Liggett sold both roses and I have them.
They are not same rose.
Please see Photo:

I think this was came from Ashdown as Amanda. Probably it is same rose as my Glendora.
My Glendora is more expanded flower form than Amanda.
Amanda comes with large clusters but Glendora is not so.
Please check thorns with carefully.
Thorns are clearly different from Mike Lowe's Amanda. Thanks

I have Glendora via Vintage Gardens, which attributes the plant to Fred Boutin, who gave it the study name "Aunt Sally", if I recall correctly.
