Polled. Lillian Rose is the special feature in the sale. I did not plan on selling any daughters of the Rose clone. We were lucky enough to get two heifers out of this mating. This was the first one born. She combines two of the best cow familes in their respective countries. I have been excited to see results of this mating ever since I bought Sherman. When you evaluate Lillian you can’t only be impressed by her sound and heavy structure. She has the muscle and internal dimention that is the trademark of the T90 daughters. If you are serious about improving your herd this female should be on your list. The mating possibilities are endless.
