Abraham Darby Rose

abraham darby rose

An English Rose


Abraham Darby rose bush, a very popular English rose by David Austin, the famous English rose expert, who introduced roses with the old fashioned look, such as 'Abraham Darby'.

It's also one of the most beautiful of the peach colored roses with huge double, cupped flowers, packed with petals, and up to 6 inches across blooms.

The lovely flower colors varies from a rich peachy pink in cooler areas, to lighter apricot pink in warmer climate zones.

The flowers appear in small clusters and they have a strong wonderful rose fragrance.

The late spring flowering is overwhelming with loads of flowers covering the plant.

There is a good repeat of blooms from early summer to late fall.

Although classified as a shrub rose, 'Abraham Darby's' long arching canes makes it much more suited as small climber, especially in the warmer areas.

It can easily be grown in a large container with a trellis inserted for a sunny balcony or patio, where you could really enjoy the lovely fragrance of this rose, as well as being able to admire the gorgeous large blooms close up.

It's moderately resistant to disease, but can be susceptible to rust in certain areas, prone to it.

The rose was named after one of the founders of the Industrial Revolution.

It was introduced by David Austin, UK, in 1985. Zones 5-9, height 8-10 feet.
