Harry H. Hazlewood.  The New Roses of 1951. Flaming Sunset (Eddie, 1947), Sunset Glory (Boerner, 1947). Sunset Pride (Morse, 1949), Beryl Formby (Fryer, 1948) are all sports of 'McGredy's Sunset' with many points in common. They all have the same rather moderate growth, dark stems, glossy foliage, semi-double bicolour blooms. Sunset Pride is lighter than 'Sunset Glory' with the colours varying to an exasperating degree bordering on ridiculous, with a more or less uniform golden reverse. Some blooms show an inner face of reddish salmon, while others have flecks and bands of rose pink. Other petals will show normal colour, while in the same bloom some will be striped. Sometimes a portion of a petal, follows one of the above variations while the rest are coloured differently.
