I got this rose own root from Lens nursery in december 2012 and it thrived...
But this year it suddenly dried out and died. No other mutabilis(-cross) in it's direct neighbourhood died.
In the opposite, those still thrive.

Per email dated today, (February 9, 2012) from Ann Velle of the Louis Lens Nursery, the seedling illustrated on this rose page and Identified as Trier X Mutabilis is the Lens seedling the Velle's have introduced as Souv. de Louis Lens.

Kim, there are some issues with seedling numbers of Lens:
- LLX 8875 is 'Patricia Beucher' = LENdepli according to Ann Velle, however the same rose was LENtrachi during the 2002 Monza competition
- LLX 8886 is 'Plaisanterie' according to Ann Velle, however, the rose with this breeder number is described as "whitish yellow" in the Kassel catalogue and fits to 'Souvenir de Louis Lens'
What do you think?

Hi Jedmar, Happy New Year! You know how easily numbers and seedlings get confused. Fortunately, we have the "expert" still with us who can sort all those things out. I would suggest emailing Ann to ask for clarification. Now it's winter, she may actually have time to help straighten out the confusion.

Happy New Year, too, Kim! Yes, it would be good to have a clarification. I have added all seedlings numbers from Kassel from 1996 and these two create problems.

This sure feels as if it's out of Mutabilis. I've emailed the nursery to inquire.
