Book (1980) Page(s) 111. Roy and Heather Rumsey, NSW. New Roses. Fortuna (Kordes): Hybrid tea. The colour is difficult to describe, but we hope ochre-orange will come somewhere near it, the reverse of the petals being lighter. A long, deep bud, and well-formed flower with about 25 broad petals, and good keeping qualities. Long firm stems, and hardly any thorns, and a light fragrance.
