Rosa De Rêscht
This old rose, Rosa de Rêscht (1840) is notable for its rich scent, borne in the small, neat, very double, bright magenta flowers packed full of petals. The repeat flowering Portland Damask rose has a compact habit, with flowers held well above the dense foliage.
Please note, our roses are available to purchase all year round, so depending on the time of year your rose may either arrive in bloom or have been pruned or deadheaded appropriately for the season.
