Rose, David Austin Thomas A Beckett Shrub Rose

The old world fragrance is strong and full of lemon zest on these red open flowers. The medium sized flowers are loose and informal and tend to nod attractivly on the shrub like form. It is that natural shrub like form that makes this rose at home in the mixed bed or along a fence line. The red color is hard to describe and even harder to photograph, as the light red petals age they take on a carmine hue.
