James Galway
A superb, large shrub with long, slightly arching, almost thornless growth - typical of our 'Leander' group. The colour is a lovely warm pink at the centre, shading to pale pink at the edges.
This is a tough, disease-free rose that is excellent for the back of a mixed border and can be trained into a wonderful short cimber. The flowers are large and full, with many petals arranged in a neat formation.
There is a delicious Old Rose fragrance.
It was named in celebration of the 60th birthday of James Galway, the world famous flautist.
Summer prune to maintain it as a shrub and encourage quicker repeat flowering.
