            Description
            Small, single flowers held in very large heads, rather like a hydrangea, produced almost continuously from early summer into Fall. Soft apricot buds open to pure white, with a hint of soft lemon behind the stamens. It is extremely healthy and almost thornless. The growth is bushy and rather upright.

            Behind the name
            Named in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew in London. We recently replanted the rose garden behind the famous Palm House, returning it to the layout of 1848 and filling it with a wonderful mixture of English Roses, Old Roses and other shrub roses.

              Frequently asked questions

              Need more help? for individual help or advice, we encourage you to contact our friendly, knowledgeable team on 800 328 8893.

              Bare root roses are dormant plants and can be planted November and April.

              Potted roses are available all year round and can be planted at any time of the year.

              Aside from extreme weather, roses can be planted at any time during the year. The extreme weather conditions that we advise against planting in are when the ground is frozen, water-logged or during a drought.

              We take every care to breed, grow and deliver the best roses. If a rose fails to grow or arrives damaged, we will replace it free of charge. That’s the David Austin promise. If you would like to request a replacement or refund of a rose within the 5 year guarantee period, please complete our Returns form.
