Kew Gardens Hedging Bundle - 5 Roses
The flowers are small and single, held in very large heads rather like a hydrangea and produced almost continuously from early summer through to the end of the season. The young buds are soft apricot opening to pure white, with a hint of soft lemon behind the stamens. The flowers are followed by small red hips which should be removed to encourage repeat-flowering. It is extremely healthy and completely thornless - an unusual thing among roses. There is a slight musk fragrance.

English Hedging Roses
English Rose hedges are particularly valuable in the garden. Unlike most other hedges they will repeat flower prolifically, producing flushes of glorious, fragrant blooms. They have attractive, healthy green foliage and most have thorns which act as a deterrent to intruders.
