Roy and Heather Rumsey, NSW.  New Roses.  
Living Fire Floribunda. (Gregory). A good looking bush with clusters of bright scarlet orange blooms shading to yellow at the base of the petals (about 30). Foliage is glossy and deep green and the whole effect is very pleasing.

Living Fire ('Super Star' seedling). A fine healthy floribunda, by Gregory, which I described last year. In such a bad year for disease as 1973, one certainly appreciates cultivars like this one. Certificate of Merit.

p40.   Leonard Hollis, England.  The Twelve Best Recruits, 1969-72. 
A floribunda which has impressed me with its vivid orange and scarlet colouring and unusually healthy, dark foliage, is 'Living Fire', a most appropriately named rose. I have yet to see a trace of disease on any of the plants. 

p66.  Dr. A. S. Thomas  Roses Overseas 1973. 
Living Fire, Fl. (Gregory, 1973). ('Super Star' x unknown). Vivid scarlet-orange blooms with about 35 petals are borne in panicles of about five. They fade very little and are still attractive when fully open. Well named. Type B (three to seven flowers in each panicle).

E. F. Allen, England.  R.N.R.S. Awards To New Rose Seedlings In 1972.
Living Fire ('Super Star' seedling). A floribunda, by Gregory, with quite large heads of double flowers of a burnt sienna-vermilion blend. A fine hot colour which showed no signs of scorch during a relatively sunless summer. The petal arrangement is a little untidy in the fully open flowers but the half open blooms are attractive. Trial Ground Certificate.
