'Bonfire Night' 7.8. Orange/red flowers in early stages outstanding but quickly fades. Repeats well but does not like heavy rain. In some areas red spider mite can prove to be a problem.

'Bonfire Night'. Six of our rosarians grow this variety, all finding it worth while to have in the garden, but one has slight reservations. Four find it grows well to about a meter high with dark green foliage. One mentions that rust attacks her bush, another finds that it is susceptible to mildew while another says red spider and rust both like it in mid summer. One rosarian mentions that some sprays can damage the foliage, another that the flowers can be damaged also. All comment that it is well named, as the perfect HT type. Flowers are of a bright orange red and yellow colouring,giving its best when about half open. After opening, two say they find the blooms fade rather badly, but the petals drop quickly. Only one says she can detect any perfume. As a Show Bench Rose it can best be used in the "small stem" classes, and should be picked early to look best. It repeats well throughout the season.
