(1936) Page(s) 24. The new rose derives from Delicata, originated by Father Schoener, well-known priest-horticulturist now living in Santa Barbara. The elder Reiter got it by “selfing” (pollenizing with its own pollen) a Delicata 3 years ago. From over a hundred seedlings he selected this new rose.

(1936) Page(s) 24. Folks interested in beautiful climbing roses will be glad to hear about the new evergreen climber, Dr. John Gallwey. It's just been announced by Victor Reiter, Senior. Northern California horticulturists know Victor Reiter, Junior, the rock and ... Dr. Gallwey retired from active practice in 1935, and now lives in the suburbs, at Atherton. The new rose derives from Delicata, originated by Father Schoener, well-known priest-horticulturist now living in Santa Barbara. The elder Reiter got it by “selfing” (pollenizing with its own pollen) a Delicata 3 years ago. From over a hundred seedlings he selected this new rose. The grandparents of this rose are Rosa gigantea and Cecile Brunner. Dr. Gallwey is a strong climber, with clusters of white flowers about 2 inches wide with attractive yellow stamens. Each cluster bears an average of 50 flowers. Last year Mr. Reiter found one cluster which had 75. Dr. Gallwey comes into bloom about the third week of May and lasts until the end of June. The blooms scent the whole garden with a fragrance like that of wild roses mixed with that of wild almond blossoms. By hurrying to Mr. Reiter's garden at 1195 Stanyan St., San Francisco, Bay Region gardeners can perhaps still see and smell a trellised specimen, about 12 feet high and 4 feet wide, in bloom.
