Its full blooms have a loosely formed shape and range in color from purplish red to dark violet-purple. The dark green foliage provides a beautiful backdrop for the flowers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIts name means ‘king’s rose with purple flowers’. It is thought to have arisen as a spontaneous color mutation of ‘Rose du Roi’. Its exact origin remains a matter of debate, but David Austin and the Royal Horticultural Society list 1819 as its year of introduction. This historic garden rose therefore dates from well before the Belle Époque.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt represents the early nineteenth-century interest in old roses that could flower again. Rose du Roi à Fleurs Pourpres produces successive flushes after its first flowering, throughout summer and into autumn. Its strong, classic rose fragrance makes it an appealing choice for a spot beside a garden path or seating area.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe shrub stays relatively low and grows bushy and somewhat spreading. This also makes it suitable for a smaller border, an informal rose hedge, or a large pot on the terrace. Its dark flowers combine beautifully with soft pink and white roses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGive it a sunny, sheltered spot in fertile, well-drained soil.
