Description
We are excited to bring to you The England Rugby Rose! This stunning red rose variety bred by Harkness Roses has been produced exclusively to mark the 150th anniversary of English Rugby.
This beautiful Hybrid Tea variety boasts a fresh fragrance and large blooms in a striking deep red. With large blooms and long straight stems, this rose is wonder for cutting.
It forms a compact shrub with plenty dark green and disease-resistant foliage. Its excellent, strong, bushy habit holds flowers up high in a lively manner. Ideal variety for beds, borders and large patio containers. Very healthy and very easy to grow.
Money raised through sales of the rose will help fund the RFU Injured Players Foundation which provides support to rugby players who sustain a catastrophic spinal cord injury or traumatic brain injury while playing the game.
The Rose is an official registered trademark of the Rugby Football Union.
We always endeavour to provide beautifully formed plants; however, our roses will naturally start to lose their leaves from October to prepare for the colder months. Do not worry though, as they will flourish once again with leaves and buds in the spring.
Please, make sure you consider the season when purchasing our remarkable roses for yourself or loved ones.
