More information
Although Austin himself no longer promotes this variety, English Elegance continues to be grown in hot, dry climates. In the UK it is treated as a low pleached rose, reaching about 3 m in height; in other regions it develops into a loose, spreading shrub. The flowers combine apricot, yellow, and pink, with a darker, more copper-toned center. They are double, with a somewhat loose form. Blooms may appear singly but more often in clusters of up to 7. The flowers do not drop; they dry on the plant. The foliage is dark green and susceptible to diseases. The shoots are almost thornless. Responds to care and feeding.
This rose forms a large bush with drooping shoots. The flowers are large, wide open, with many small central petals surrounded by more formally arranged outer petals. The inner petals show shades from pink and salmon to copper, while the outer petals are soft pink. It is not widespread and blooms twice per summer; suitable for border planting, with shoots that can droop from the back of the border.
