English Shrub Rose
CARDING MILL® is another award winner from David Austin. and you can see why. This rose packs a lot of color into every flower. On opening, the petals are a vivid apricot on the inside and pale yellow outside. Then as they mature, the apricot colors soften and pink tones emerge. It's relatively small at 3 - 4 feet, but a healthy, vigorous grower. Find a place for it where you can enjoy the myhrr fragrance.
Rose breeder David Austin is famous for bringing together the shapes and
scents of old-fashioned roses with the repeat bloom, hardiness, and
disease resistance of modern roses. Like all roses, the more sun you
give them, the more flowers you'll get in return. Remember that without
full sun and good air circulation, even the most resistant roses
may need help fighting fungal diseases. Also, repeat-blooming roses
are heavy feeders, so for best performance fertilize in spring and again
in mid-summer.
