Repeating Excellent

A beautiful rose of true Old Rose character which might, in-fact, be compared to one of Redoute’s prints ‘Rose du Bengale’.

The flowers start as rounded buds and gradually open to reveal a many-petalled centre, while at the same time retaining their rounded shape – the petals incurving in the most attractive manner. Their colour is a pleasing shade of deep pink. They have a delicious, soft and warm Old Rose fragrance.

This is a particularly tough and healthy variety with slightly arching stems which, at maturity, forms an attractive, rounded shrub rather like ‘Golden Celebration’. If pruned lightly, it will grow quite tall and be suitable for the back of a border. Pruned harder it will be of medium height and so could be placed closer to the front of the border. All the signs are that this rose will become one of our leading varieties.

We are pleased to name this rose after Alan Titchmarsh, the well known television horticulturist, who has been an inspiration to gardeners over many years.

4 ft. x 3 ft. (1.2 m x 0.9 m).
