A rose doesn't have to be new to be good, or to win. 'Mister Lincoln' was introduced in 1964, and 'Royal Highness' in 1963. They still find their way to the show bench because when they're good, they can be very, very good. That is, they meet the standards by which roses should be judged. This is particularly true of 'Royal Highness', and less often, but still occasionally, for 'Mister Lincoln'. With the latter, you have the advantage that on show day if you have a good 'Mister Lincoln' -- but one not good enough to win Queen -- you can always enter it in the Most Fragrant class. It often wins there.

The seeds for 'Mister Lincoln' -- a cross of two famous reds, 'Chrysler Imperial' and 'Charles Mallerin' -- were thought to have died in a refrigeration accident. Somehow they survived. Among the roses produced from these seeds in 1964 were two of the finest reds ever, 'Oklahoma' and 'Mister Lincoln'... Herb Swim wrote that he did not notice the original plant, which was growing at the end of a seedling row, until it was about six feet tall. It had fifty flowers on it in various stages of maturity, and he always remembered the thrill it gave him... Years later, Swim told me that of all the roses he bred, 'Mister Lincoln' gave him the greatest satisfaction...
