    Cariad

    (Auspanier) English Shrub Rose Bred By David Austin
      Description
      The flowers are a soft rose pink and semi-double in form, held on thin, wiry stems. They open to provide us with almost camellia-like blooms. At bud stage the fragrance is myrrh with a touch of tea, becoming a spicy musk when the flowers open. It forms a large, airy shrub with dainty, grey-green foliage. David Austin, 2010.

      Potted roses are available all year round and can be planted at any time of the year.

      Aside from extreme weather, roses can be planted at any time during the year. The extreme weather conditions that we advise against planting in are when the ground is frozen, water-logged or during a drought.
