Winetta Roses. Some time ago, Mr. John Wynne, of Rosallon Nurseries, Sunnybank, noticed that the rose ‘Gartendirektor Otto Linne’, classified in 1934 as a Lambertiana rose by its propagator, P. Lambert, was noticeably resistant to common rose diseases and insect pests. He cross pollinated this rose and multiflora, raising therefrom an actively growing, strongly branching variety which under trial proved to be a valuable stock. Cuttings of this new stock were forwarded to Denmark last year for trial purposes, and certain propagators in England are interested. The Official Journal of Patents, Trade Marks and Designs, of 23rd December, 1965 shows the registration of this stock under the Trade Mark ‘Winetta’ in Class 31, Agricultural, Horticultural and Forestry Products, etc. This is a great achievement for Queensland horticulture. Winetta roses (that is varieties budded on Winetta stock) will be available this season.
