'Dr. Quinn' rose References
Article (newspaper) (10 Jul 1930) Page(s) 40. Just now is an opportune time for striking roses from cuttings. There are very many varieties which are readily struck, or propagated in this manner.

Such varieties as white and pink Maman Cochet, climbers, Blackboy, Sachengruss, Lady Medalist, Frau Karl Drushki, Devoniensis and any of the Polyantha type, Dorothy Perkins, Tauschendorff, and Hauff (violet, purple, nearest to blue, with clusters of very attractive little blooms), and Dr. Quinn (unique copper coloured, well shaped singly, shown on the end of long shoots), are easily struck in almost any reasonable conditions.
Article (newspaper) (20 Aug 1927) Page(s) 13. THE ROSARY. By Dog Rose. [...] . .. Among the climbers, Climbing Dr. Quinn is one of the freest flowering sorts that can be secured. I have several times noticed on passing a large garden in the southern suburbs a trellis covered by this rose, and even right in midwinter it carries quite a number of blossoms. This rose has not much form, and the flowers are on rather short stems, but the colour - a deep salmon, shaded with crimson - is quite attractive. The flowers are double, and have a sweet tea-scented perfume. It is a climber well worth planting.
Article (newspaper) (16 Oct 1926) Page(s) 13. THE ROSARY . By Dog Rose [...] Climbing Dr. Quinn is a rose that flowers most freely right through the year. It is one of the best flowering winter climbers and although the blooms are not very shapely, they are of a splendid salmon pink colour, slightly shaded with crimson. It is a vigorous grower, has good foliage and several plants we have noticed during the last two weeks, have been very thickly covered with blooms.
