Any ideas on what this is

Hattiesburg, MS(Zone 8a)

This was shipped to me several years ago from Europe and was mislabeled. The flowers are small-only 5" wide skirts. The fragrance is overpowering. Leaves fuzzy and serrated. Buds slight fuzz.

I forgot to say, it looks beautiful! Now I know why I love whites!

Got me stumped.Looks similar to the aurea white seedling I have that came from England years ago.

Gee Barb, I have no clue. It sure is pretty though. Monika should be up in another couple of hours. I bet she knows.

Whatever it is, it sure is beautiful! Gosh the calyx sure hugs the corolla!
Is there just the one split in the calyx? From the picture, thats what I see.
Could it be an x candida?

Does not look like it stands out straight enough to be a pure Arbo to me,guess I you need to send me a cutting for a closer look,LOL! What a stunning white Barb!Give this one a Big sniff for me,I love the smell of the Euros.

Herbstein, Germany(Zone 5a)

It looks like a x candida but I can not tell, if it is a pure x candida (aurea x versicolor). It is not a B. arborea!
The flowers are very pretty.
