David Austin (Desdemona)

Desdemona is an English shrub rose introduced in 2015. The peachy-pink buds open to beautiful, white, chalice-shaped blooms, with a pinkish hue. The incurved petals create an arresting interplay of light and shadow. The strong Old Rose fragrance has hints of almond blossom, cucumber and lemon zest. It forms a most attractive neat, rounded, bushy shrub. Grow in full sun in all soil types. At maturity it can grow to 4 feet tall and 3 feet wide. Ideal for rose hedges, containers, mixed border or rose border.
