More information
Mary Webb produces large, semi-marginal flowers, so cup-shaped they recall peonies in form. They are lemon-yellow, sometimes pale apricot or cream, and usually fade to cream or white, with a persistent lemon hue in the centre. The flowers are very large and fragrant, appearing singly or in clusters of 3–5. The foliage is large, light green, matt; the young growth is crimson. Like many Austin varieties, the rose responds to cutting off the blooms and pruning after the first flowering—this results in more abundant autumn bloom.
