David Austin Dame Judi Dench Shrub Rose 6L

Named after one of Britain's most beloved stars of stage and screen, the Dame Judi Dench English Shrub Rose from David Austin Roses is strong and spectacular. The blooms are a particularly rich shade of apricot-orange, paling prettily towards the edges. The striking, red-tipped buds gradually open to reveal large informal rosettes, each with ruffled petals and a button eye. They are very resistant to rain damage and the petals drop neatly. A very healthy shrub; it produces strong, arching stems which, over time, form an attractive mound of blooms.

Introduced in 2017, this rose is suitable for all soil types and thrives in partial or full sunlight. It is ideal for brightening up a mixed border, or for cutting and enjoying in your home.

After approximately three years of annual pruning, the Dame Judi Dench will be about 110cm tall and 125cm wide, with a delicious tea scent and large blooms. As a repeat flowerer, this bush will give you fragrant flushes of flowers from late spring to early winter.
