Thanks Doug. Can you tell us more about this award please. I am unable to find it in the National Rose Trial Garden of Australia Inc. awards published in the Australian Rose Annual 2014, pages 52 to 58

Joyce Abounding has been reclassified and is now classed as a miniflora.

The error of the Grace Abounding name has been confirmed and that name has been deleted.

"There is no such rose as Grace Abounding" - Doug Hayne comment in the breeder Bruce Chapman's file.

Thanks Doug. I am quite sure you are right. However that text in the 2012 Australian Rose Annual seems to have come direct from Ross Roses and so I have emailed them as a double check before merging 'Grace Abounding' into 'Joyce Abounding'.
