Last Spring, I photographed this cluster-flowering white Noisette in the State Historic Park at San Juan Bautista.

I asked the late Mel Hulse (left) "Is this Blush Noisette, or another of them danged white Noisettes?" and he said, "Another danged white Noisette."

Just in CA, a HOST of these "not-quite-Blush Noisettes" have been found. Some, but not all, were tested in that study. We have "Placerville White Noisette"/"Jacob Zeisz", "Roseville Noisette," "Georgetown Noisette," "Pale Pink Noisette," and there are doubtless more.
They're all great. They are alike in many ways. They differ in many details."
There's also "Setzer Noisette," which makes a great climber.

Many of them are so superficially close to Blush Noisette that they could easily replace it in commerce, with no one seeing a difference.

Here is a link that might be useful:

Where can I get one of those?! Is it being sold anywhere? I think "Another Danged White Noisette" would make a great name for it if it were put into commerce! LOL

I'm new to noisettes. Got my first Blush Noisette this year as a band from Rogue Valley. So far so good! I love the thornless stems and droopy foliage--reminds me of peach trees.

Belle -- That one isn't in commerce, but allow me to recommend "Placerville White Noisette," from Vintage.
WE tend to call it "Jacob Zeisz," as it was collected on the grave of a very young man
His unique tombstone helps make his rose unforgettable.
