A Shropshire Lad

English Rose
This is a strong-growing, healthy shrub with large, glossy leaves. The flowers are cup-shaped in the early stages, opening to form attractive rosettes; their colour being a soft peachy pink. It is in every way an excellent and reliable shrub of above average size.

There is a delicious fruity fragrance in the Tea Rose tradition.

The name is taken from A.E. Houseman's collection of poems about the county in which our nursery is situated.

5ft x 5 ft. or 8ft as a climber.
