Dr. R. S. Rodney Francis.  Breeding New Roses.
I am experimenting with Crimson Glory on the following lines:  Some years ago I crossed Earl Haig with Crimson Glory.  The best seedling was the one I call Leila Francis and I crossed this with The Doctor.  The best seedling was one I call (appropriately) Alisoun Francis.  It has Doctor growth, colour one shade deeper than Poinsettia, but with same general effect and a pleasant fruity perfume.
