'Bijou Corail ®' rose Reviews & Comments

Is this rose (Bijou Corail) the same as another rose listed on HMF called 'Corail Gelee' ?
'Corail Gelee' was released in 2011 but in Japan. It says it was bred by Junko Kawamoto and is listed as a shrub.
'Bijou Corail' it says, was bred by Delbard - before 2011 and described as a floribunda - but it has 2 top Japanese awards!
Seems like a remarkable coincidence - they look so similar, have strong fruity fragrance and have very similar names and both appeared in 2011

It is a coincidence. Japanese breeders often give French names to their cultivars. If you follow the links under 'Corail gelée you will see more photos, showuîng that Kawamoto's rose is more double and has ruffled petals.

Indeed, the awards listing by Delbard proves it is the same rose. It is very difficult to assign seedling names of Delbard to the roses later commercialized, as these seedling names only appear at rose trials. Thanky ou for pointing this out.

Besides, from what I’ve seen, the 2019 Rome fragrance award is not granted to this one, but to a variety from Croix?

True, we had a double listing for the Fragrance award. CROasna is the correct winner.
