'Roseraie de l'Haÿ' rose Reviews & Comments

Personally, I find it hard to believe that this rose is not in some way, shape, or form related to the hybrid rugosa Hansa. Color qualities are quite similar, if not identical....as is the scent, which is 100% identical to Hansa after a side by side comparison of the two today amongst various other rugosas and hybrid rugosas.

A Swiss nurseryman told me that many 'Roseraie de l'Hay' in commerce are, in fact, 'Hansa'.

Do you have any new experiences, infos on the identity of Hansa-Roseraie de l'Ay?
I'm interested as i ordered both of them for this winter and curious if i end up with two specimens of the same cultivar...
Doesn't really matter just curious how for example the bush size is stated in several platform, quite a few portals describe Hansa as 120-150 cm tall max and R.D.L. 150-200 cm - which is quite a big difference if i wanna consider the space available for each cultivar...
Thank you for any information!

The easiest way to distinguish them is by the blooms:
- 'Roseraie de l'Hay' has double blooms with the yellow stamens visible. An early reference from "Journal des Roses" points out the similarity of the bloom to 'Souvenir de Pierre Leperdrieux'. You will find a good drawing of this rose on our listing of it.
- 'Hansa', on the other hand, has full, somewhat irregularly positioned petals, with stamens not evident.
You can see that among the photos of 'Roseraie de l'Hay' some which are definitely 'Hansa', and vice versa.

Surprised to read here that it 'sets few hips', considering I just dead-headed about 20 green hips off my first year bush. Does it mean they don't actually progress to a seed containing hip later? They were soft, which feels strange to me. When I opened up a flower there was certainly an abundance of pollen and the stamen very well hidden under that.

Hips are rare. If you check the photos, you will find only 4 showing hips. Can you post some photos?

It is possible that you have 'Hansa' and not 'Roseraie de l'Hay'. Note under 'Hansa' the following:
"Sets a heavy crop of large scarlet hips."
