Northern Ireland Office ourstoryinthemaking.com: "Colin from the Dickson Family"
To create the Northern Ireland Centenary Rose, the seed parent, Spice of Life, was crossed with Light Fantastic, as the pollen parent, both roses bred by Colin himself. This crossing created a rose, Seeding B, which became the seed parent and was crossed with a rose called Moment in Time, as the pollen parent. This created the dark red floribunda, codenamed Dicamada. Dicamada was then crossed with Storyteller, a gold medal winner at the International Rose Trials at Sir Thomas and Lady Dixon Park in 2020.
