p100.  S. R. Bird. Notes from Auckland
Viscountess Charlemont shows its relationship to Portadown Fragrance in its wood colouring and sweet perfume. I cannot foresee a front line future for this variety, however.

p133.   Mr John Poulsen, NZ.  Canterbury Roses
Viscountess Charlemont.- Fairly good, but rather spreading growth, flowering very freely. This variety has given some lovely flowers of a nice clean colour and should make a fine bedding Rose.
