(9 Jun 1934) Page(s) 4. Alexander Hill Gray: A good doer. Lemon yellow in colour.
(11 May 1935) Page(s) 3. America: A good disease resistant, free blooming and sweetly fragrant pink. The bush is almost thornless and it may be grown for exhibition.
(9 Jun 1934) Page(s) 4. Caledonia: A richly perfumed, pure white.
(11 May 1935) Page(s) 3. Chateau De Clos Vougeot: A rich velvety crimson, much darker than Daily Mail, sweetly scented, and a profuse bloomer.
(9 Jun 1934) Page(s) 4. Columbia: Deep rich pink, sweetly fragrant.
(11 May 1935) Page(s) 3. Daily Mail: A rich deep velvety red, richly perfumed. The colour of this rose is distinctive, and the fragrance outstanding, and it is a good doer.
(9 Jun 1934) Page(s) 4. Dame Edith Helen: A pure glowing pink, one of the best exhibition roses, but not always a good grower.
(11 May 1935) Page(s) 3. Dividend: A rich distinct yellow which holds its colour admirably, a profuse and perpetual flowerer, one of the best.
(11 May 1928) Page(s) 8. CHOICE ROSES What Varieties to Select (By 'Waratah') Edgar M. Burnett: is not very extensively grown here, but is worthy of a place in any collection. Color: flesh tinted rose, of fine form and fragrant.
(2 Jun 1923) Page(s) 8. SOME SWEET-SCENTED ROSES (By 'Redgum') There has been a lot of talk lately about sweet-scented roses. The National Rose Society members chatted the matter over one night recently and if I am rightly informed decided that while perfume is always one of the very desirable factors in the makeup of the flower, it should not be placed on anything like the same mark as form and colour. Perhaps a reader here and there would like to know the names of some of the sweetly-scented varieties. La France and Edgar M. Burnett, two other very sweet things, are worth their place any time. These roses are much alike both in colour and form. The two flowers will send their perfume through a large room.
