More information
Duchesse de Cambridge (Duc de-Cambridge) is a historical rose, with references dating to about 1840, though the cultivar is older. The shrub is dense and spreading; depending on growing conditions it reaches 1.2 to 2.45 metres in height. The foliage is large, oval, matte; young leaves have a bronze tint, turning bright green with age. Flowers are large (up to 10 cm in diameter), of old-fashioned form, densely petalled (26-40 petals). Dark pink with a purple tinge, the blooms mature to crimson-pink. They have a strong fragrance. Flowering is single and prolonged, occurring in early summer. The variety shows high frost hardiness and good disease resistance.
