Tea Clipper - Ausrover English rose

Tea Clipper - Ausrover

The blooms have an informal rosette shape, quartered and gathered around a central button, diameter of 8-9 cm and filled with more than 41 bright apricot coloured petals, with an Old Rose charm. Very fragrant, blooms continuously throughout the season. Grows bushy, big, upright, with branches bending under the weight of the blooms and reaching a height of 110-130 cm; the leaves have a nice metallic dark green colour. Disease-resistant, it's nearly thornless. It celebrates the centenary of the death of Frederick Horniman, an English tea trader.
