Jimmie Greaves HT. (Gandy, 1972). 'Dorothy Peach' x 'Prima Ballerina'. I am not fond of bicoloured roses, but this cultivar has such excellent form that I will keep it for a few years - about one bloom in three has a split centre. It is deep red and very pale pink. Vigorous, but it needs more protection than average against black spot.
