Dr. A. S. Thomas.   New Roses in Victoria. 
Red Dandy Florib. (Norman, 1959) Large, bright scarlet, double, conical florets borne in heads of three to five. This does not seem to meet the usual requirements of a Floribunda. More or less a small edition of 'Ena Harkness'. It could supersede 'Frensham',  of which I have never been an admirer.
