Alex Ross, South Australia. 
Duet, although difficult to classify, is likely to be heard of in the future as one of the best and most floriferous garden roses. With a little care and attention this rose will produce five crops of bloom in the one year.

Roy and Heather Rumsey, Dural NSW.  Our Twelve Best Sellers.
Duet  A very free-flowering, disease-resistant variety in a two-toned pink. This has proved a most satisfactory and in every way reliable rose, hence its popularity. It must be remembered that all the roses in this list have to do well under a wide variety of conditions before they can have the accolade of a "best seller" bestowed on them.

p12.  Roy and Heather Rumsey, NSW. New Roses 
Duet HT. Two-tone pink of excellent colour. This variety is a consistently good performer and in every way proved one of the best introductions of the year.

p20.  Dr. A. S. Thomas.   New Roses in Victoria. 
Duet HT. (Swim), 1960 Strong upright plants with smallish, rather loose but nicely formed blooms in two tones of pink which recall the colouring of 'Betty Uprichard'. A very pretty rose for the garden and home decoration but far short of being a dual purpose variety.
