Article (newspaper) (28 Jan 1928) Page(s) 14. The Rosary. By Dog Rose. Lady Stewart and Golden Emblem. Two seasons ago we were under the impression that Etoile de Holland would probably turn out to be a better red rose than Lady Maureen Stewart, but we have altered our opinion. Lady M. Stewart is certainly a gem. It flowers freely, and makes a fine plant. The colour leaves nothing to be desired, being far better than Hadley. Etoile de Holland certainly runs it very close, being an excellent rose. We do not think it is quite as free flowering as the variety mentioned.
Website/Catalog (1927) Page(s) 29. New Roses 1927. 'Lady Margaret Stewart' .....Special attention is drawn to the name, as the initials are the same as Lady Maureen Stewart, and both must be written in full to prevent confusion.
p41. General List. (20) Lady Maureen Stewart (HT. A. Dickson 1920) F. 2. or 3. .....Another year's trial has shown curious results. In many places the plants have done so poorly as to be discarded, while in others growth, blooming and disease resistance are all that could be desired. It has been noticed to do much better when pruning has been light. Until more definite performances are general, recommendation of this variety will be qualified.
Website/Catalog (1926) Page(s) 42. General List. (9) Lady Maureen Stewart (HT. A. Dickson 1920) F. 2. or 3. .....Last spring many plants mildewed badly for the first time, but this must be considered as most unusual.
Website/Catalog (1925) Page(s) 39. General List (5) Lady Maureen Stewart. (HT, A. Dickson 1920) F. 2. or 3. .....A few instances have come under notice where growth and size of blooms could be improved, but these are cases of partial loss of vigour through over propagation, and will soon be overcome. This variety has so impressed Sydney growers that it tied with six others for second position in the 1924 Garden Rose voting.
Website/Catalog (1924) Page(s) 33. General List. (37) Lady Maureen Stewart (HT. A. Dickson 1920) F.2. Scarlet cerise with darker shading, produced on erect stems. The double blooms are rather flat, but are strongly scented and the foliage is mildew-proof. The colour does not appear to blue and is of such a remarkable intensity that the eye is at once attracted and even amongst reds, this rose stands out on its own. The growth is ideal for garden and bedding purposes. A Victorian customer declares 'Lady Maureen Stewart' is the only one of the newer roses to rival 'Hadley'. Highly recommended. Everywhere.
Book (1924) p65 S. W. Burgess, Tonbridge, Kent. By a red rose I mean one which holds its colour. Best of all 'Chateau de Clos Vougeot, then 'Lady Maureen Stewart'....
p147. George M. Taylor, Edinburgh. 'Lady Maureen Stewart' (A. Dickson & Sons, 1920). This will not grow with me. It appears to have no constitution.
p156. B. W. Price, Tuffley, Gloucester. 'Lady Maureen Stewart' (A. Dickson & Sons, Ltd.). I have decided to discard this variety once or twice owing to its poor growth, but each year, towards the autumn, it has rewarded me with some lovely buttonholes, and so it has been reprieved. I am not increasing my stock but shall retain the trees I have another year. The scarlet cerise petals have a velvety texture with darker shadings. Slight musk perfume.
p170 Herbert Oppenheimer, Caterham Valley. 'Lady Maureen Stewart' is a Rose of fairly vigorous growth. The blooms are small but quite full, nothing semi-double about them, and fragrant. At their best their dark velvety crimson colour with black shadings is such a perfect joy, that I should never care to be without them. The flowers do not blue until they have reached the fading stage, and they stand rain pretty well. This variety is not so free flowering in the autumn as one could wish, and the foliage, although free from disease, is not very attractive during the later part of the autumn.

Magazine (30 Sep 1922) Page(s) 487. A Trial of New Roses British Introductions of 1920. Lady Maureen Stewart (Hybrid Tea, Alex. Dickson and Sons).—A strong grower, with good trusses of brilliant velvety scarlet blooms, the shape of which reminds one of our old friend A. K. Williams. Very sweet scented, and worth growing for that alone.
