A very large pink and yellow flower, marked and shaded with apricot, gold, and copper. Many petals, good substance, and fragrant. A stout, dwarf plant, free flowering and quite healthy.

A very rich coloured variety and very free in blooming. This will make a splendid dwarf bedding rose. Growth is low, but not weak.

Magazine (30 Sep 1922) Page(s) 487. A Trial of New Roses British Introductions of 1920. Constance Casson (Pernetiana, B. R. Cant and Sons).—A very strong grower, with large, globular blooms of bronze flushed yellow colour. The foliage is very fine, particularly the new growths. The blooms may be strong enough for exhibition, but their shape is inclined to be flat. It should make a splendid bedding Rose, and the colour is decidedly novel.
