Roses at Rookwood
(1993)  Page(s) 184-5.  
 
From "Rookwood Cemetery: Some Observations on the state of the Old Fashioned Roses in the area taken over the last 9 or 10 years." by Esmond Jones.
Over on the Lidcombe side there is a magnificent pink tea rose that is known as "Agnes Smith" because of the name on the headstone. I have sent coloured slides of this rose to various people overseas and some are of the opinion that the rose is La Sylphide.
