Detailed Description
One of the most fragrant of all English Roses. Its strong, warm, intensely floral fragrance is in the myrrh family and has hints of apricot. The plump buds, with attractive flashes of red, open to form beautifully rounded, chalice-shaped blooms of soft apricot, which eventually pale to cream.
Growth Habit
‘Wollerton Old Hall’ forms a wonderfully fragrant and particularly healthy climber, producing many stems from the base of the plant. It is almost thornless, so is very easy to train. Ideal for covering a wall or pillar.
Origins
Wollerton Old Hall in Shropshire, located not far from our nursery, has one of the most beautiful private gardens in the country. The gardens are set around a 16th Century hall and feature roses in creative plant combinations, including many of our own English Roses. Wollerton Old Hall is open to the public on selected days throughout the summer.
