Book (2020) Includes photo(s). John Ford. NZRS International Rose Trial 49. p52. (Sompurspot) 68.9 points. Shrub bred by Rob Somerfield, Glenavon Roses. Trial No. 5062 What a show this rose put on when in full flower, it would be covered in single white with purple- red centre in clusters, and it cleaned itself well too as the flowers aged. Habit was typical for a shrub but could be shaped nicely. A very healthy rose too. I will be tempted to add this to my small collection of Persica roses when it becomes available.
