“Student” draws attention to the fact that Mr. Alister Clark’s rose Beatrice McGregor is practically thornless, a quality that is claimed for very few other varieties. – “There are many varieties which are almost devoid of thorns, but I do not think it is generally known that there is available a variety which does not carry any vestige of a thorn, and was raised by Mr. Alister Clark. It is named Beatrice MacGregor The plant grows well and produces its deep red flowers of very good form freely and singly on long stems.”

p105 Mr. D. Toogood, Box Hill, Victoria. Some Glenara Roses. My experience with Beatrice McGregor has not yet come to a climax. I notice Dr. Thomas recommends it as very promising. I hope he is a true prophet concerning it; anyhow, this Rose is worth trying out. It is Australian, a good shade of red that lasts and a nice sized bloom.
