The repeat-flowering shrub rose, Macmillan Nurse, combines old rose sensibilities with modern disease resistance. Its clusters of double rosette blooms in a creamy white flushed with apricot, award elegance and romance to the cottage garden over many months, enhanced with a delicate scent and lush dark green foliage. Its compact form allows it to sit perfectly in both border and container, and it is one of the few roses that thrives in partial shade, allowing its placement in north facing gardens.
