If the photo in the 1957-58 Kordes catalogue is any indication it looks like the other photos here of 'Dorothy Goodwin' show a reversion to 'Peace'.

Is this rose still being sold in Australia? Does it still grow in any Australian garden?

I don't know but I'd say not. I just came across the old photograph randomly looking for something else and thought it was interesting enough to post.

I note that it wasn't in Kordes' catalogue of 1962 (if I recall correctly) so it seems like it might have been an unstable sport.

This rose, also called Perfect Peace by you, was bred by my grandfather Charles Harry Goodwin and named Dorothy Goodwin after my grandmother. He owned a rose nursery in Kimberley, Nottinghamshire, UK.
