About David Austin® Olivia Rose Austin™ Potted Rose Bush

Rosa ‘AUSmixture’ PAT. PP27365 Olivia Rose Austin™

Oliva Rose™ Austin Rose Bush is a beautifully refined English shrub rose celebrated for its luminous, soft apricot-to-blush blooms and classic old-rose charm. Each flower opens into large, fully cupped rosettes packed with delicate petals, creating a romantic, timeless look in the garden.

The fragrance is gentle yet captivating—lightly fruity with warm tea-rose notes—making Oliva Rose™ a pleasure to enjoy up close along walkways, patios, or seating areas. Its well-shaped, upright habit forms an elegant, medium-sized shrub with healthy, rich green foliage that provides a lovely backdrop to the blooms.

Bred for modern gardens, Oliva Rose™ offers excellent repeat flowering throughout the season and strong disease resistance when grown in full sun. Whether used as a focal plant, in mixed borders, or in a dedicated rose bed, it brings grace, softness, and reliable performance to any landscape.
