It would be nice if any of the media reporting on the poison mushroom case had mentioned the rose gardens of Morwell, but I didn't see any comment. The roses are everywhere - through the centre of the township, beside the railway station, in the centre of a roundabout.

Unfortunately it is time to make the plant list of Ruston's Roses a historic archive. Many of the remaining plants of the HRIA Tea collection have been dug up, and we hope they will survive transplanting. The rest are to be demolished. Rockhill's plant list should be removed, as she died several years ago, and I think Cree is no longer with us either.

In cooler weather I can detect a definite daphne scent from this rose. Quite marvellous.

This classic gal is getting hard to find. I only know of Rogue Valley Roses to offer her nowadays; as of August 6, 2025, she is in stock there, and I've ordered three. My last try from Roses Unlimited died over her first winter, and RU has elected to no longer offer 'Charlotte Armstrong'. I've sought her since middle school, so it's been twenty to twenty-five years to find and acquire her.

If you ever find them, you also want Banner, Charlotte's striped sport and Stockton Beauty, a darker sport of her.
