Description

Lady of Shalott is a celebrated and award-winning David Austin® English rose, cherished for its remarkable hardiness, exceptional disease resistance, and uniquely colored blooms that seem to capture the warm hues of a setting sun. Bred to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Tennyson’s birth, this robust shrub produces an abundance of chalice-shaped, fully double flowers in a captivating blend of rich orange-red, salmon-pink, and golden-yellow, with the petals’ reverses often a contrasting buttery gold. Its flowers exude a pleasant, warm tea fragrance with intriguing hints of spiced apple and cloves. Forming a bushy, rounded shrub with gently arching stems and glossy, mid-green leaves that emerge with attractive bronze tones, it blooms with remarkable continuity from late spring until the first frost. This versatile, low-maintenance beauty is an ideal choice for gardeners of all skill levels, thriving in borders, hedges, and large containers.
