Frank Moore, Rose Echoes From the Homeland.
Two years ago, however, an old friend of mine, George Lilley, of Burnham, Buckinghamshire, found and fixed a coral sport of that very elegant decorative Rose, Leni Neuss. George Lilley was a professional Rose grower in a " small" way, but he had a great heart, was an honest judge and a good friend, so that we made him name the Rose after himself, in the sincere hope that the flower would carry on his name and reproduce his virtues. If you grow Leni Neuss do grow George Lilley, for if you like the parent you will love the child.
