'La Tosca' seems a strong possibility for an Australian foundling "Mrs. Val Nash" / Rosehedge Cottage". (is on HelpMeFind) but I need to confirm that 'La Tosca' has a prickly/glandular pedicel - and if anybody has photos of the whole bush, I would be grateful. thanks. Patricia

Patricia, I have posted 3 more photos. The Sangerhausen "La Tosca" seems different than 'Mrs Val Nash'. Yes, pedicels are glandular, but sepals look different. Also, colour is lighter pink. I have no photo of the habit, but it is upright. Unfortunately, my plant froze down the past two winters. If it has survived, I can post some photos in summer.

Yes. The Sangerhausen's 'La Tosca' does look different and I do see those folioles on the sepals.
I had better get together some details on why I thought 'La Tosca' was "Mrs. Val Nash" / "Rosehedge Cottage Pink" and put them on to the foundling page. Thank you so much for your help Marcir.
