David Austin Princess Anne Shrub Rose 6L

The Princess Anne English Shrub Rose from David Austin Roses is sumptuous and beautiful. The young flowers are deep pink, almost red, fading to pure rich pink. The rather narrow petals are unusually substantial, with a hint of yellow on their undersides. Held in large, fragrant clusters, they are produced with remarkable freedom. A particularly healthy variety; it forms a bushy, upright shrub with thick, succulent, highly polished foliage. It was named after Her Royal Highness Princess Anne by David Austin in honour of her work as patron of the charity, Riding for the Disabled.

Introduced in 2010, this rose is suitable for all soil types and thrives in partial or full sunlight. It is ideal for brightening up mixed borders or celebrating in rose hedges and borders. Versatile, the shrub also does well in pots and containers, for a more mobile splash of colour and scent.

After approximately three years of annual pruning, the Princess Anne will be about 125cm tall and 125cm wide, with a delicious tea scent and large blooms. As a repeat flowerer, this bush will give you fragrant flushes of flowers from late spring to early winter.
