Franklin: a new plant which looks as though it will be as good as 'Scentasia'. Another Franklin reports says a must have variety for fragrance, makes a lovely garden rose. Moutere Hills: a beautiful colour but a very big disappointment when compared to 'Scentasia', now on death row. Qtago: healthy strong dark green foliage, most attractive colour. Another Otago reporter says awful colour when dying, not anywhere as good as original. Southland: lovely and healthy, flowers fade though.
