Give a gardener something truly memorable with Rose 'Francis E. Lester', a magnificent rambling rose that fills the summer garden with flowers, fragrance and life.
This award-winning variety holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit and is also recommended by the RHS as a 'Plant for Pollinators', making it a particularly thoughtful gift for anyone who loves roses, wildlife or traditional cottage garden planting.
Clusters of pink buds open into abundant single white flowers, each softly touched with pale pink along the petal edges. As they mature, the blooms become almost pure white.
Its powerful musky perfume can be enjoyed around seating areas, pathways and entrances. Growing up to 4.5m tall, this vigorous rambler is made for covering an arch, pergola, wall or sturdy garden structure, gradually becoming a striking and enduring feature.
The rose flowers once in summer, then is followed by small red hips, bringing an attractive new season of colour. Copper-flushed young foliage and mature dark green leaves add further depth around the flowers.
Fully hardy and recognised for its garden performance, 'Francis E. Lester' is a lasting gift that can grow more impressive with every passing year.
Supplied as a bare root rose, ready to plant.
