Pat Toolan, Rose Rustling in the Barossa Valley
Another old property that we visited for the first time in 1987 had previously belonged to the late Miss Ackland who had inherited, as an only child, her parents’ farming interests just north of Mount Pleasant. As you approached the cottage, there used to be a collection of roses on the southern boundary of the garden, with a few of them repeated at the front and near the north western corner of the cottage. Eleven different roses were in the southern bed including ‘Black Boy’ [Clark, 1919], Rosa banksiae ‘Lady Banks’,‘Turner’s Crimson Rambler’ [Turner, 1893] and a number of other roses. These included a medium sized, sweetly perfumed, double, light to mid-pink Hybrid Tea with lighter reverse blooms on weak, nodding necks. The mother plant had grown to large proportions – possibly a descendant of ‘La France’ as it bore many of its characteristics. Its study name is “Miss Ackland’s 1A Pink HT”. Our present thinking is that it may be ‘Lady Ursula’ [Dickson, 1909

"Bridgetown BP" (syn "Kew Cemetery Pink"). My next rose is a 2m high, gently arching Hybrid Tea found all over Australia. The outer canes bend toward the horizontal with age. The 40-petalled blooms are pink and the centre petals sometimes form a ball with the outer ones rolling back on themselves in 'La France' fashion. These are heavy blooms that face downwards and weigh the pedicel down so that it forms an S-bend. Blooms tend to ball in wet weather and there is very little hip set. This is a graceful rose. it may be 'Lady Ursula' (Dickson 1908) and I wouldn't mind that at all as my mother's name was Grace Ursula. It came into my garden from five different sources in Bridgetown and Manjimup.
