Augusta Luise is a stunning rose that combines vintage glamour with modern performance. Each luxurious bloom unfurls in a medley of apricot, peach, pink, and cream—often all at once—creating a theatrical, colour-shifting display. The ruffled petals are deeply cupped and strongly fragrant, exuding a luscious fruity perfume with hints of citrus and old rose. It flowers generously throughout the season on a robust, upright shrub. Named in honour of the writer and patron of the arts Augusta Louise zu Stolberg-Stolberg, this rose is a statement piece in any garden.
Pair with soft mauve or cream varieties such as David Austin's ‘Olivia Rose Austin’, Kordes' ‘Madame Anisette’, or Star Roses' ‘Francis Meilland’ to highlight Augusta Luise’s blend of antique hues. Silver foliage from artemisia or lavender offers elegant contrast and enhances the rose’s fragrance.
