Perhaps this rose should have another synonym of 'Dame Roma Mitchell'.

Dame Roma Mitchell © (TOMroma) A rose to commemorate the life of an outstanding woman who was a pioneer and pacesetter for Australian women in the legal fraternity. Dame Roma was the first Australian woman QC to be admitted to the Bar, becoming a most respected Barrister and Judge; also the first woman Governor of South Australia; and Patron of the Rose Society of S.A. A beautiful fragrant vibrant salmon-pink rose with lighter reverse petals. The decorative Hybrid Tea blooms are freely produced with long picking stems, on a hardy plant growing to 1.5 metres. Refreshing colour certain to win many hearts. Joins the ‘Australian True Blue Collection’, bred by George Thomson, and available in 2003 from Ross Roses only.
