H. R. Darlington.  Crimson Roses. 
Anyone growing Crimson Glory should also grow Gerald Hardy. It is a brighter colour and perhaps, during its bursts of flowering, somewhat freer in flower than Crimson Glory.  Most of its blooms are well shaped, though they are not such finished flowers; they are fragrant, but the point is that they have with me usually flowered at a slightly different time from those of Crimson Glory, and I have often picked flowers from it when Crimson Glory was resting.  It is specially good in autumn, and this year I have picked quite tolerable Howers from it for a month after the best of Crimson Glory was over.

Bush Roses
Gerald Hardy (Hybrid Tea) By Dicksons of Hawlmark, 1936... Bright scarlet red. A brilliant live colour. The pointed bud develops to a moderately large, full flower of beautiful spiral form. Strong bushy growth and very floriferous, carrying its captivating flowers on strong erect stems. This is a real gem, and, in our considered opinion, the finest fragrant bright red garden Rose yet produced. We have a very high opinion of this Rose. Very highly perfumed.
