Book (1978) Page(s) 138. 'New Penny' Shortest Pink Remontant P2 H2 **** A shining little rose; the foliage glitters and the pink flowers gleam against it. I am puzzled by the usual description of orange red, because although the buds are salmon, it is quite a light pink in general effect. Either it behaves differently whether in America or Britain, or else we have the wrong variety. We have a useful one, not only as a handsome plant, but for its fertile pollen. Raised by Ralph Moore from (R. wichuraiana x`Floradora') x unnamed seedling. Introduced in 1962

Book (1965) Page(s) 18. Roy and Heather Rumsey, NSW. New Roses. New Penny Miniature. (R. S. Moore) A delightful shade of coppery pink with large clusters on a small plant. There are about 25 petals surrounding a well-defined centre. A very pretty and useful little variety. ([R. Wichuraiana x 'Floradora'] x Unnamed Seedling).
