Roald Dahl
Roald Dahl
The Roald Dahl Rose is a delightful English shrub rose from David Austin, cherished for its beautiful apricot blooms and fruity Tea fragrance. The flowers are rosette-shaped with a soft orange hue that fades gracefully, creating a warm and inviting display throughout the growing season.
This rose is known for its compact, bushy growth, reaching about 4 feet tall and wide, making it ideal for garden borders, containers, or small garden spaces. Its exceptional disease resistance and hardiness make it well-suited to Zones 5 and above, though it may survive in sheltered Zone 4 locations with added winter protection.
The Roald Dahl blooms continuously from late spring to autumn, with each bloom filled with petal-packed charm. Named in honour of the beloved author and released during the centenary celebration of his birth, this rose is perfect for anyone looking to add a hint of literary inspiration and warmth to their garden.
