Dr. A. S. Thomas, Victoria.  Some New Ones.
Century Two  Large Flowered (Armstrong, 1971). Planted several years ago and increased in 1980. Can be described best as an "Improved 'Charlottte Armstrong' ". The medium pink colouring, the long petals, and the strong growth are similar, but this rose has more petals and more classical form. A fine dual-purpose rose but some nurserymen have ceased to list it.

Century Two HT. (Armstrong 1971), ('Charlotte Armstrong' x 'Duet'). Judged a year earlier, this seemed to be the best rose in the famous Bagatelle rosery in 1973. Colour similar to that of 'Charlotte Armstrong' but this rose has at least ten more petals. Vertical grower. Thorny. A good dual purpose rose.

Century Two, HT. (D. L. Armstrong, 1971) ('Charlotte Armstrong' x Duet'). Local performance confirms my report last year. It was one of the best cultivars in the famous Bagatelle Rosery in the Bois de Bologne (Paris). Not a tall grower there or here.
