Petite ou moyenne, mais portée en large corymbe, nette et soignée: corolle bien ronde, pétales rangés en rosette, tige rectiligne garnie de fins aiguillons et jusqu’à sa façon de se placer parmi ses sœurs; son parfum est très discret. Idéale en vase… première floraison plutôt tardive.. rosier érigé, un peu raide et étriqué, mais amplement garni d’un beau feuillage vert sombre. Cocker, UK, 1970.

Three other Certificate of Merit winners complete my dozen. 'Anne Cocker' ('Highlight x 'Konigin der Rosen'), raised by Alec Cocker, is quite distinct from other modern floribundas, with light vermilion, small-petalled full flowers (36 petals) carried erect in trusses on upright, vigorous growth. An outstanding characteristic of the flowers is that they last an unusually long time, both on the plant and when cut, without showing any marked change in condition. Another peculiarity is that it comes into flower later than most modem flotibundas, and provides a bright patch of colour when most of the others are past their best. The foliage is reddish when young, plentiful and fairly free of disease.
