John Nieuwesteeg: On Tuesday, 9th November 1991 Susan Irvine and I went to Hugh Dettman and Dr. Grove's gardens, both of which were in Kyneton. From the Dettman garden we collected 18 varieties. 'Sunny South' was there and an apricot variety which turned out to be 'Miss Hugh Dettman', the same as one I had already collected in Berwick.

Mrs. Hugh Dettmann. Modern, Large-flowered climber. Apricot blend. Alister Clark’s roses were mainly in pink and red shades, so this is a welcome addition in apricot-yellow. ‘Mrs. Hugh Dettmann’ is a vigorous climbing rose producing a copious supply of nicely shaped buds opening to almost single 7-petalled flowers that fade rather quickly. There is some scent. Growth is strong and healthy and there is no repeat, however it has no disease problems. This rose can be used on pillars, tripods and arches and is probably a better rose in cooler climates where there is not so much bleaching of the petal color. Because of its Rosa gigantea blood, it flowers early in spring and heralds the rose season. Zones 7-11. Clark, Australia, 1930. Hybrid of Rosa gigantea.

‘Mrs. Hugh Dettman’. A climbing Hybrid Tea released in 1930 and described in Modern Roses as ‘bright apricot yellow’. Hugh Dettman lived in Kyneton and the rose released under this name was found in his now-neglected garden. Its colour – a soft buff – does not conform to the description in Modern Roses so, lacking further evidence, it must be treated with reserve.
