....Trial Ground Certificate.   Herself  ('Sweet Repose' x 'Moulin Rouge').  This was the runner-up to 'Fred Loads' for the Torridge Salver, as its raiser, E. C. Vincent, is an amateur rosarian.  It is a dwarf but vigorous Floribunda, with some fragrance, and the flowers, three inches across, are of a most attractive clear, flesh pink colour.  It repeats well and has stayed quite healthy, apart from a late attack of black spot in the Autumn of 1965.  A very pretty rose indeed.
