Nola Simpson,  New Zealand International Rose Trial Ground Awards. Trial No. 20. 1988-1990. 
'Eye Opener'. (Interop) Ground Cover/Shrub.  One of the newer innovative roses mentioned earlier. A dense spreading growth habit, not too tall, with very healthy glossy green foliage. Flowers are borne in clusters and are single, rich red in colour with attractive golden stamens. The colour holds well and lasts a long time. This type of rose has become very popular overseas as they are low maintenance and lend themselves for growing on banks, over walls, in parks, traffic roundabouts, etc, and flower a long time through the year. Bred by Peter Ilsink, Holland.
