Old Blush China
Often known as the ‘Monthly Rose’ for the regularity with which it blooms. This variety is one of the first to flower, then will continue to produce flushes of flowers, weather permitting, through until Christmas. Modest, loosely formed flowers are held in graceful clusters. There is a delicious fragrance. The blooms are pale pink deepening with age and are held on a dainty, twiggy shrub.
This rose was described as the ‘Last Rose of Summer’ in Thomas Moore’s poem.
