Mrs. Diana Fickling, Mount Waverley, Victoria. 
From a garden of approximately 170 roses, I have chosen the following varieties as the best performers.....'Jacques Cartier' (1868) & 'Comte de Chambord' (1863) - Portland Roses.  Under 1m shrubs of deep pink.  Highly perfumed and very old fashioned looking.  Excellent foliage.  Both a must in a small garden.

Comte de Chambord . Portland. (1860) 4 feet. Flowers repeatedly. A performer of rare beauty that deserves the following comments . . . from Elsie Earing, Schenectady, New York, "Everyone who has seen my plant of Comte de Chambord wants it! Constantly in bloom from mid-June until late October." And, from Alexander Mesrobian, Bath, Maine, "Comte de Chambord was spectacular, receiving raves from my neighbors. Graceful, pointed buds evolve into old-fashioned loveliness, releasing a delicious and heady fragrance. One blossom converted my drab office into Eden!" We really don't need to say more, but you might want to know the color, which is strong pink - the foliage is medium green on a plant that stays compact and neat. 10.00
