English Shrub Rose
Rosa Abraham Derby
A showy, repeat-flowering, English shrub rose studded with large, fully double, deeply cupped, soft peach-pink blooms from July to October. These are paeony-shaped with pale yellow undersides and a rich, fruity fragrance that has a refreshing sharpness. Bred by David Austin in 1985, it is a vigorous, bushy variety with thorny stems and healthy, leathery, mid-green leaves. A beautiful, arching habit and shapely growth makes it perfect for adding colour to the front of a border or growing as a short climber up a small support. It may need to be sprayed for black spot once or twice a year

Garden Care:
Dependent on the time of year you buy our roses, the compost may break away when removing from the pot because they are field grown and potted in autumn. Prior to planting trim the roots to 25cm and the stems to 15 to 20cm taking care to cut diagonally away from and above an outer facing bud. Mix compost in with the back fill and a potash based fertilizer.
