Thank you Derek. We have opened a file on Rita Sandbrook's 1995 white HT 'Aorangi. Nola Murray also thought it was a wonderful name for her 1979 white Floribunda.

The name Aorangi was the Maori name given to Mount Cook, the highest mountain in New Zealand. It meant “Cloud Piercer”. The mountain always has snow on its peak.
