Description. Experts disagree on the spelling of the name. Following Shakespeare's usage must be right, for breeder Douglas Gandy borrowed it from Twelfth Night.

E. F. Allen, Awards To New Rose Seedlings In Great Britain In 1980.
'Lovers Meeting' (Seedling x 'Egyptian Treasure'). A cluster-flowered rose with H.T. shaped buds, by Gandy, of Lutterworth. The very bright orange-vermilion flowers have virtually no scent, but they make a remarkable visual impact and this seedling was superbly shown at the Autumn Show, Westminster, in September. Its buds should prove excellent for button-holes. Certificate of Merit
