H. Hazelwood. The New Roses of 1932.
The nearest approach to the ideal red exhibition rose, in the writer’s opinion is produced by Climbing Daily Mail Scented. This variety was imported late in 1930, but, owing to have arrived after the lists were made up, did not receive any published comment. In colour it presents a rich fiery, blackish crimson, with large petals and splendid form. As the winner of the “Daily Mail” 250 pounds cup for fragrance, its perfume is beyond question. (It should be mentioned that this cup was won by the dwarf parent, but as the climber is a genuine sport its fragrance is unimpared.) The petals, in number show a remarkable variation with wider limits than usual. On a recent inspection by two local growers, three blooms were picked from young, unforced plants. One counted 15 petals, while the other two were 55 and 62 respectively.

New Roses 1932.  Clb. Daily Mail Scented  (Clb HT.  Archer 1930)  A climbing sport of 'Daily Mail Scented' rose.  Rich deep velvety red with a scarlet sheen. The colour is well maintained, while the flowers are richly scented.  4/- each.
The flowers are better than on the dwarf, which is saying a great deal. Looks like the best dark red climber to date.  Its richness of colour, pronounced fragrance, and quality of bloom will make it a most popular variety. Highly recommended.
