...but I have found that many of the blooms do not come up to my standard in this respect.
Lemania, a very dark Rose, may be placed in the same category,

p80.  Dr. A. S. Thomas.  An Exhibitor's Opinion
Lemania: A wonderful Rose in midsummer, but as we do not have Rose shows then, it is useless to me.

p87.  Mr. Frank Penn, Remuera, NZ.  Random Notes. 
Lemania impresses me as a very promising Rose—a good dark red that grows well and is fragrant.

Lemania (another excellent all-purpose Rose of dark red colour of good size, show standard, sturdy, healthy grower, and a free bloomer).

p81.  Dr. A. S. Thomas.  Victoria.  The Best of Recent Introductions
Lemania (Heinzmann, 1936), three plants four years old: Marvellous dark red of perfect form, but it needs hot weather to open; consequently, I have rarely seen a good bloom except in mid-summer. Fairly free growth, though spindly,

Lemania.- On the first flowering of this new red we decided to describe it as "a gem" in our current catalogue, and it has ever since gone on to prove what a gem it really is. It carries more black than any of its rivals, perfect shape, style and growth, and has a rich, sweet fragrance. It may not give the quantity of blooms that some of the other reds do, but every flower is good.

p112.  Mr Frank Mason, New Zealand Roses.
Lemania has done well and is a rich red. The scent is an outstanding feature.
Book  (1940)  
 
p116.  C. W. Heers, Q'ld. Roses in Queensland.  
Lemania has improved and has given me some exquisite red blooms, dark, shapely and strongly veined, which are shown to perfection on their single, upright stems, supported by healthy foliage. This variety must be placed in line with our best reds for this State.

p118.  Mr. T. G. Stewart.  The 1940 Novelties.
Lemania. Exhibition form, but a bit small. Tall growing, but good; colour excellent. A very good Rose.

p125.  Mr. Frank Mason.  The Newer Roses in New Zealand
Lemania is another dark red quite distinct from others, and all the blooms I have seen have been beautifully shaped. The growth is good, and those who like a good red will welcome this with open arms.
