David Austin Bush Rose Dame Judi Dench - 20cm Pot

David Austin Bush Rose Dame Judi Dench.

Botanical Name: (Ausquaker) English Shrub Rose.

A beautiful rose; the blooms are a particularly rich shade of apricot-orange, paling prettily towards the edges. The striking, red-tipped buds gradually open to reveal largeinformal rosettes, each with ruffled petals and a button eye. They are very resistant to rain damage and the petals drop neatly. There is a light-medium Tea scent. A very healthy shrub; it produces strong, arching stems which, over time, form an attractive mound of blooms. Named after one of Britain’s most beloved stars of stage and screen.

David Austin English roses combine the charming forms and fragrances of old roses with the repeat-flowering nature of modern roses.
