Other Harkness roses to impress me and which I would not be without are 'Paul Shirville' (Harqueterife) for its superb fragrance, even though it does suffer from blackspot.

E. F. Allen, Awards To New Rose Seedlings In Great Britain In 1982. 
The Henry Edland Medal for fragrance and a Certificate of Merit went to Jack Harkness for his 'Paul Shirville' ('Compassion' x 'Mischief'), a cluster flowered rose with H.T. shaped blooms which are extremely strongly scented. Its colour is a two tone, pale vermilion, somewhat reminiscent of 'Miss Ireland'. It did not stand up well to very heavy rain at the end of June but makes a most attractive show in fair weather.
