PO Box 4355, Gumdale Qld 4154 Opinions expressed in this publication are not necessarily those of the National Rose Society of Australia or the Editor. ISSN 1038-2801 Preface Paul Hains ARA SMA - Queensland In the 93 years since Mr TA Stewart published the frst Australian Rose Annual there have been only 10 editors (including joint editors - 9 editorial teams). Each editor has brought a diferent style to their editions. I have enjoyed bringing the love of the rose to you over the last 5 years and hope you have enjoyed taking the journey with me. I never planned on being the National Editor but circumstances often have a way of changing your direction. At the time there was no-one who would take on the role and NRSA ofcials were discussing having a year with no Australian Rose Annual. I’m glad I took on the challenge. It’s hundreds of hours of work to compile but it’s satisfying to produce a publication to help our members with their love of roses. We need to encourage and support this passion and this publication is the best opportunity to share our national spirit across our regions and worldwide. I will be forever greatful for the many regular contributors without whom it would not have been possible to bring you the Annual for the last 5 years. Special thanks to Doug and Glynis Hayne as the last Honorary Editors for their help to start me of and guidance over the years. I would like to also make a special thank you to Melanie Trimper, Michelle Endersby, Gavin Woods, and Richard Walsh who gave me contributions to publish throughout my tenure as Editor. 2020 was a challenging year for everyone. It has provided an opportunity for all of us to take a step back to reassess priorities and the time we have available to persue our passions. For me this means it is now time to hand over to someone else to bring their touch to the publication, making this my 5th and fnal Australian Rose Annual. My fnal thankyou goes to my wife Toni who supported me while I took on way too many rose society roles and spent my nights and weekends doing society administration instead of my rose breeding, tending to the garden, and family time. I’m looking forward to spending more time in my garden and ftting in some more ultramarathon running on the mountain trails close to home. I wish everyone all the best.

The year did throw up many challenges which organisations not only in Australia but in so many parts of the world did adapt to. The challenges forced some to fairly rapidly up date or familiarise our self with modem technological communication skills. Zoom meetings as well as virtual shows were added to our vocabulary, especially when the NRSA 2020 AGM was held by Zoom. It was a great disappointment that the 2020 National Championships had to be postponed for twelve months. Such postponements and cancellations became familiar aspects of Rose Societies’ around the world. Only Western Australia could operate more or less as normal in regard to shows. South Australia showed great initiative with their virtual rose show. The 2020 National Rose Trial Garden on line award presentation enabled many members who had never seen this event to share the experience. It had been my intention to visit every Australian State during my term as National President, lock down and travel restrictions prevented this. As my Presidency will now continue into 2021 I hope to achieve this during the year. Hopefully this year will see a gradual return to normality throughout the world. At this time positive results are being recorded for vaccines enabling us to travel domestically and internationally renewing acquaintances with friends and enjoy magnifcent rose gardens in various places around the globe also enabling friends from overseas to visit Australia. Considering the year we have experienced it is hard to fnd many positive aspects, but many people have rediscovered gardening. In so many places gardens have never looked better. Ironically in a year with practically no Rose Shows the Roses have rarely looked so stunning. I look forward to welcoming rosarians to “Roses by the Sea” Australian Rose Championships at Kiama in October 2021. We see Kiama as a Curtain-Raiser to the Adelaide 2022 gathering, There is so much to see and do in the Kiama area we hope many visitors will extend their stay a few extra days. 4 The National Rose Society of Australia Inc.

  • Apples Catalogue 2019
    ADAMS PEARMAIN Herefordshire, England 1862 Oct 15 Nov Mar 14 Adams Pearmain is a an old-fashioned late dessert apple, one of the most popular varieties in Victorian England. It has an attractive 'pearmain' shape. This is a fairly dry apple - which is perhaps not regarded as a desirable attribute today. In spite of this it is actually a very enjoyable apple, with a rich aromatic flavour which in apple terms is usually described as Although it had 'shelf appeal' for the Victorian housewife, its autumnal colouring is probably too subdued to compete with the bright young things of the modern supermarket shelves. Perhaps this is part of its appeal; it recalls a bygone era where subtlety of flavour was appreciated - a lovely apple to savour in front of an open fire on a cold winter's day. Tree hardy. Does will in all soils, even clay. AERLIE RED FLESH (Hidden Rose, Mountain Rose) California 1930’s 19 20 20 Cook Oct 20 15 An amazing red fleshed apple, discovered in Aerlie, Oregon, which may be the best of all red fleshed varieties and indeed would be an outstandingly delicious apple no matter what color the flesh is. A choice seedling, Aerlie Red Flesh has a beautiful yellow skin with pale whitish dots, but it is inside that it excels. Deep rose red flesh, juicy, crisp, hard, sugary and richly flavored, ripening late (October) and keeping throughout the winter. The late Conrad Gemmer, an astute observer of apples with 500 varieties in his collection, rated Hidden Rose an outstanding variety of top quality.

  • Physico-Chemical Analysis and Determination of Various Chemical Constituents of Essential Oil in Rosa Centifolia
    Pak. J. Bot., 41(2): 615-620, 2009. PHYSICO-CHEMICAL ANALYSIS AND DETERMINATION OF VARIOUS CHEMICAL CONSTITUENTS OF ESSENTIAL OIL IN ROSA CENTIFOLIA M. KHALID SHABBIR1, RAZIYA NADEEM1, HAMID MUKHTAR2, FAROOQ ANWAR1 AND MUHAMMAD W. MUMTAZ1, 1Department of Chemistry, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad, Pakistan 2Institute of Industrial Biotechnology, Govt. College University, Lahore 54000 Pakistan, 3Department of Chemistry, University of Gujrat, Pakistan Abstract This paper reports the isolation and characterization of essential oil of Rosa centifolia. The oil was extracted from freshly collected flower petals of R. centifolia with petroleum ether using Soxhlet apparatus. Rosa centifolia showed 0.225% concrete oil and 0.128% yield of absolute oil. Some physico-chemical properties of the extracted oil like colour, refractive index, congealing point, optical rotation, specific gravity, acid number and ester number were determined and were found to be yellowish brown, 1.454 at 340C, 15°C, -32.50 to +54.21, 0.823 at 30oC, 14.10245 and 28.1876. High- resolution gas liquid chromatographic (HR-GLC) analysis of the essential oil of R. centifolia, showed the phenethyl alcohol, geranyl acetate, geraniol and linalool as major components whereas, benzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde and citronellyl acetate were detected at trace levels. Introduction A variety of roses are generally cultivated for home and garden beautification in many parts of the world. Its rich fragrance has perfumed human history for generations (Rose, 1999). Roses contain very little essential oil but it has a wide range of applications in many industries for the scenting and flavouring purposes. It is used as perfumer in soap and cosmetics and as a flavor in tea and liquors.

  • Fruit Characteristics of Some Selected Promising Rose Hip (Rosa Spp.) Genotypes from Van Region of Turkey
    African Journal of Agricultural Research Vol. 4 (3), pp. 236-240, March 2009 Available online at http://www.academicjournals.org/AJAR ISSN 1991-637X © 2009 Academic Journals Full Length Research Paper Fruit characteristics of some selected promising rose hip (Rosa spp.) genotypes from Van region of Turkey F. Celik1*, A. Kazankaya2 and S. Ercisli3 1Yuzuncu Yil University, Ozalp Vacational School Van 65800, Turkey. 2Department of Horticulture Faculty of Agriculture, Yuzuncu Yil University, Van 65100, Turkey. 3Department of Horticulture Faculty of Agriculture, Ataturk University, Erzurum 25240, Turkey. Accepted 13 February, 2009 A few temperate zone fruit species such as apples, pears, apricots and cherries dominate the fruit production in Eastern Anatolia region in Turkey, while the other species (e.g rose hip, hawthorn, sea buckthorn etc.) are less known. Native species grown in their natural ecosystems could be exploited as new foods, valuable natural compounds and derivatives. In the last few years, interest in the rose hip as a fruit crop has increased considerably due to its nutritive and health promoting values. The study was conducted between 2005 and 2006. Among 5000 natural growing rose hip plants around the Van region were examined and among them 26 genotypes were selected. Thirteen genotypes belong to Rosa canina. The fruit weight, length and width of genotypes were ranged between 1.79 - 4.95 g; 15.28 - 33.83 mm and 13.11 - 19.26 mm, respectively. Soluble solid content ranged from 17.73% (VRS132) to 28.45% (VRS 234). Ascorbic acid levels ranged between 517 to 1032 mg/100 ml. The phenotypically divergent genotypes identified in this study could be of much use in the future breeding program.
