More information
A rose cultivar known for its floral characteristics. Blooms are large and well-formed; the petal edges are slightly reflexed, creating an almost saucer-shaped flower. The flowers are pure pink with a light fragrance. The shrub is medium in height, broad and branching. Although Eglantine is susceptible to disease, it is used as a garden plant.
An English rose by David Austin that produces abundant blooms and is widely grown. The flowers are soft pink with a darker reverse and paler edges, later fading to pale pink and white. The form is slightly cup-shaped, twisted rosettes, sometimes with a button in the centre. They are borne in dense sprays that lean toward the ground, 3–9 per spray, and are long-lasting. The shrub is branched, erect, very prickly, with matt foliage. Black spot can be an issue, but Eglantine flowers almost continuously.
Similar to Mary Rose, with a more upright and less stout shrub shape. The flowers are soft pink, paler at the edges, forming well-defined rosettes. Forms a low bush of medium size.
Develops into a large, branching bush. The first flowering is very abundant; later, individual blooms appear. Opens quickly in heat.
