"Brownlow Hill Rambler. Wichuriana Hybrid. Not yet identified but a delightful spring flowering vigorous climber with clusters of medium-sized very double pale pink blossoms with unexpected peach pink depths to the centre and the strongest fragrance of ripe apples. The foliage is superb, extremely glossy deep green and disease-proof. We rate it with our best. From historic ‘Brownlow Hill’, country estate of Alexander Macleay who built Elizabeth Bay House in Sydney.
