Final Analysis 1991-92.
'Fresh Pink'. (MACpinderal). McGredy 1988. 'Anytime' x 'Moana'. Pink; 27 reports on 77 bushes; 1-5 years; 47cms; 7.5 rating. Aptly named as the flowers are semi-single and a fresh appealing pink in colour, very healthy, produces a mass of bloom at each flowering but slow to repeat. Very showy in the garden, unsuitable for showing, rain spots flowers. A Canterbury grower says she has it growing in a woodland and it does well. Apparently a very good garden mini come patio.

'Fresh Pink'. MACpineral. McGredy, 1988. ('Anytime' x 'Moana'); pink semi-single. 7 reports on 17 bushes; 1-3 years. 50cm; 7.2 rating. Best grown in partial shade, we are advised, as hot sun hurries bloom fade and burn. The colour is good and mini well named. Rain spots the petals. It is likened to a pink 'Wanaka' petal and bloom form, but with less petals. Repeat is good in Oamaru, but slower for North Islanders. Health is grand everywhere, likewise vigour and growth, but two reporters tell of poor bushes.

Don Sheppard. Review of Newer Roses for 1989-90 Season
Fresh Pink MACpinderal; McGredy 1987. pink; 5 reports; 18 bushes; 1-3 years; 45cm; 7.6 rating. The blooms are of similar appearance to 'Wanaka', but of a brilliant pink shade - quite appealing. The older blooms turn a dusky colour, but one reporter says the change is not unattractive. It is late to bloom in spring, but repeat is fast. Healthy, except that it appeals to mites. All reporters agree it is a good mini with great promise.

'Fresh Pink' Macpinderal. Just as it is named. A clean, clear, fresh pink miniature which always looks good.
