About David Austin ®Gertrude Jekyll® Potted Climbing Rose
Rosa 'AUSbord' Gertrude Jekyll®
Named after the legendary garden designer, Gertrude Jekyll® is one of the most cherished English roses. Its large, rosette-shaped blooms open from perfectly scrolled buds in a vivid, glowing pink that fades softly at the edges. With a rich old rose fragrance and early, continuous flowering, it thrives as either a graceful shrub or a short climber. Ideal for borders, arches, or near seating areas where scent can be appreciated up close.
