'Alister Clark'. Modern, Polyantha, light pink. Repeat-flowering. This lovely little rose occurred as a sport on a bush of ‘Marjory Palmer’ in Victoria, Australia. ‘Marjory Palmer’ had the Rambler ‘Jersey Beauty’ as a parent, and it is from this that ‘Alister Clark’ gets its large, extremely glossy abundant foliage. The bush has a short and very spreading growth habit and the flowers are large for a Polyantha Rose. They come in clusters and have widely flaring outer petals surrounding a center packed with petals. Flowering is continuous and there are no disease problems. Laurie Newman asked the descendants of Alister Clark for permission to name the rose, which was introduced in 1990, after him. This was approved and it is a fitting tribute to Australia’s greatest rose breeder. Zones 4-10. Newman, Australi
