'Just Jenny' Parentage unknown to Compiler; 11 reports on 27 bushes; 1-4 years; 80cms; 8.1 rating. Rich peach/orange blooms. Napier says nice bud and flower, repeats well. North Otago finds their bush healthy and the colour lovely. The blooms last well on the bush and the repeat is quick. Central Taranaki has well shaped blooms on a healthy bush. Southland likes the bloom colour and shape. Their bush is tallish. Canterbury has a healthy bush with lots of flowers, good for exhibiting. Otago feel the soft colours with nice form look good in a vase or bowl. Bush can give large heads but if grown from cuttings they seem to come one to a stem. Bay of Plenty like the bloom colour but they have a poor bush. Marlborough just love it. Health, shape and colour - all great. Another Canterbury grower finds it very healthy. A stunning garden display. Very floriferous, a prize winner.

Colin Horner, What's New in the U.K.
Since then I have seen and admired the newer so-called dwarf clustered flowered or patio roses arrive from Newtownards, Diclittle, which I am sure will impress all who like the shorter free flowering varieties.
