Book (1936) Page(s) 28. Harry H. Hazlewood. The New Roses of 1936. Another German-raised sort is Liebesbote (Weigand), which, by translation, might readily become Love's Messenger. This is a good Rose, of fifty petals, opening to bright red blooms. With a name like this, one would naturally expect a colour like that in 'Crimson Glory', but in this case, apparently, the fervour of the love is not very intense. The blooms, however, are sweetly scented, and in other respects it is a good variety.
