Roald Dahl English Rose Hedging Bundle - 5 Roses
Soft orange-red buds open to medium-sized, cupped rosettes of perfect apricot colouring. They are produced almost continuously, are extremely robust and have a lovely fruity Tea scent. Very healthy; it matures into an attractive, rounded, bushy shrub with few thorns. Named to mark the centenary of Roald Dahl's birth, with the approval of his wife, Liccy Dahl - the colouring reminiscent of the eponymous peach in James and the Giant Peach.

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.
