Rosa Golden Celebration

The perfect gift for gardeners celebrating a Golden Wedding, Rosa Golden Celebration is a repeat-flowering David Austin English shrub rose. It’s a medium-sized, deciduous shrub rose with a compact, rounded, bushy habit and long, arching stems. The profuse, divided foliage is a glossy, deep green. Almost continuously from midsummer to autumn, the shrub bears large, cup-shaped, fully double, rich butter-yellow flowers; the strong fragrance is Tea Rose, developing into hints of Sauternes and strawberry. In warmer gardens it can be trained as a short climber, and it’s also suitable for a low, informal hedge. Also good for cutting, rose Golden Celebration holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
