More information

A reliable, stable variety with slightly drooping shoots that, at maturity, forms a rounded bush reminiscent of Golden Celebration. With light pruning it grows quite tall and is suitable for the back of a border; with heavier pruning it maintains a medium height and can be placed closer to the foreground. It has been predicted to achieve broad popularity.

This variety produces fairly large, deeply cupped, densely petalled blooms, with petals that curve slightly inward. The outer petals are pale pink, while the central petals are much brighter, a radiant warm pink. Side shoots bend under the weight of clusters of 3–4 flowers to the ground, while central basal shoots carry much larger, very loose clusters, creating a candelabra effect. The flowers have a light rose-oil scent with a hint of citrus. Alan Titchmarsh forms a rather large bush with drooping, arching branches. The young foliage is red, later turning glossy dark green. Very good disease resistance.
