Book (1976) Page(s) 73. E. F. Allen, Awards To New Rose Seedlings In Great Britain In 1975 The Henry Edland Medal for fragrance and a Trial Ground Certificate were won by Harry EdIand ('Lilac Charm' x 'Sterling Silver'). This is a floribunda by Jack Harkness, with soft greyed-lilac, cup shaped flowers and a very strong scent. I see from my notes that, on three separate visits, I gave it nine marks for fragrance so the double award meets with my complete approval.
