The Poet's Wife
Medium English Shrub Rose - David Austin

The Poet's Wife

(Auswhirl) -Bears rich yellow flowers, which pale over time. Their formation is most pleasing, having a neat outer ring of petals enclosing an informal group of petals within. There is a strong, wonderfully rich fragrance with a hint of lemon, which becomes sweeter and stronger with age.  A very popular colour in the Austin series. 1.25m - 1.75m tall x 1.25m - 1.75m wide. ♦ Best for Fragrance.
