More information

Large, vigorous shrub with long, gracefully arching, almost thornless shoots. This robust, healthy rose suits the back of a mixed border. The flowers are large and carried in dense clusters. The color is warm pink at the center, fading to pale pink toward the petal edges. Rose scent.

A notable characteristic of James Galway is the flower form: many petals arranged in orderly fashion, with slightly bent outer petals that are a little larger than average. The petals are delicate pink in the center and paler at the edges, with a gentle rose‑oil fragrance. When trained as a climber it reaches about 2.4 m on a support or up to 3 m on a wall. Very disease resistant, with abundant repeat flowering. Also suitable when grown as a shrub. The bush is tall, with arching, drooping shoots, suitable for bordering. A young cultivar with pink flowers and a strong, complex fragrance reminiscent of historic roses. Shrubs up to 1.5 m tall with numerous, almost stemless shoots that droop under the weight of the inflorescences.
