Rosa David Austin® 'Roald Dahl'® (peach) Shrub Rose
Soft orange-red buds open to medium-sized, cupped rosettes of perfect apricot coloring. They are extremely robust and have a lovely fruity Tea scent. Very healthy; it matures into an attractive, rounded, bushy shrub with few thorns. Named to mark the centenary of Roald Dahl’s birth, with the approval of his wife, Liccy Dahl – the colouring reminiscent of the eponymous peach in James and the Giant Peach.
