Book (1927) Page(s) 152. Includes photo(s). PRINCESS ELIZABETH OF GREECE. (H.T.) Raised by Messrs. CHAPLIN BROS., Waltham Cross, Herts. Awarded a Certificate of Merit, Summer Show, 1926. A very fine Rose. The colour is pale orange, shaded pink. The blooms are well formed and very freely produced, the edges of the petals roll backwards in a very pleasing manner. The habit of growth is vigorous and fairly free of mildew. The foliage is a dark olive green, the stems a pleasing shade of red. I have seen plants of this Rose in the raiser's Nursery one mass of bloom. It should rank with CIarice Goodacre as one of our best Roses for massing. In commerce.
