E. F. Allen, Awards To New Rose Seedlings In Great Britain In 1979.
LEGgab ('Mermaid' x 'New Dawn'). A shrub, by LeGrice, with pink buds opening to semi double, white flowers which are flushed blush pink. I marked it down in 1978 because of powdery mildew but it has remained clean throughout 1979. It has an excellent habit and I thought it very pretty. Its parentage is unexpected. Certificate of Merit.
