(Dec 1932) Page(s) 19. New Roses You Will Like (Especially Suited to the Pacific Coast) BILLY BOILER: Many new roses have been introduced recently from Australia. One of them is this splendid new red rose which is a little different from most bush roses in that it sends up long canes to a height of four or five feet, and on each one of these canes is a graceful scarlet flower of large size. They are not very full, but this rather graceful open flower is one that is preferred by many people in a red rose, and this particular variety keeps a long time either on the bush or when cut, and the color does not fade in the hot sun. They are also intensely fragrant.

(1936) Page(s) 24. The new rose derives from Delicata, originated by Father Schoener, well-known priest-horticulturist now living in Santa Barbara.

(1936) Page(s) 24. Folks interested in beautiful climbing roses will be glad to hear about the new evergreen climber, Dr. John Gallwey. It's just been announced by Victor Reiter, Senior. Northern California horticulturists know Victor Reiter, Junior, the rock and ... Dr. Gallwey retired from active practice in 1935, and now lives in the suburbs, at Atherton. The new rose derives from Delicata, originated by Father Schoener, well-known priest-horticulturist now living in Santa Barbara. The elder Reiter got it by “selfing” (pollenizing with its own pollen) a Delicata 3 years ago. From over a hundred seedlings he selected this new rose. The grandparents of this rose are Rosa gigantea and Cecile Brunner. Dr. Gallwey is a strong climber, with clusters of white flowers about 2 inches wide with attractive yellow stamens. Each cluster bears an average of 50 flowers. Last year Mr. Reiter found one cluster which had 75. Dr. Gallwey comes into bloom about the third week of May and lasts until the end of June. The blooms scent the whole garden with a fragrance like that of wild roses mixed with that of wild almond blossoms. By hurrying to Mr. Reiter's garden at 1195 Stanyan St., San Francisco, Bay Region gardeners can perhaps still see and smell a trellised specimen, about 12 feet high and 4 feet wide, in bloom.
