Description
Rosa ‘Kew Gardens’ is a beautiful David Austin rose with small, single flowers arranged in large heads, similar to hydrangeas. These lovely blooms appear almost continuously from early summer until autumn. The soft apricot buds gradually open to reveal pure white petals with a subtle hint of soft lemon behind the stamens. In addition to its stunning blooms, ‘Kew Gardens’ is also highly regarded for its exceptional health and nearly thornless stems. This bushy, upright rose is a relatively new introduction, having been bred by David Austin in 2009. It makes a beautiful addition to any garden, adding a touch of elegance and beauty with its delicate, fragrant blooms.
